Morning light hits the Tolo Harbour and the pavement hums under rubber — this is where a day on two wheels begins. Riders push off from a small village lane, the sea at their shoulder daring them to keep pace as the shoreline path unfurls. Over five hours the route alternates between quiet village streets, a Taoist temple courtyard, and a long, paved waterfront where fishing boats bob and the wind composes a steady shove.
