    Finally my cold was gone, so let's go back to the ocean, ride some waves and explore Java!
    I really should do more proper research, before starting my rides, can't always be that lucky as I was today: Completely accidentally ran into the Cirahong Dubbeldekker Spoorbrug, a double-decker bridge for trains and bikes (in earlier times even cars), built by the Dutch in 1893.
    As sometimes here, there's a little toll to pay to the guy who's managing the one-way traffic.
    Great place to see, some businesses established around the bridge, a small shop, some Warungs (little restaurants) and a cafe. Perfect break, watching people passing by, stopping by eating, drinking coffee and taking pictures, even one couple seemed to have a wedding-photoshooting there.
    The ongoing road was amazing, going through hills, mountains, and tiny villages. Of course some parts of the road were broken and hard to ride, but most of the track was like a biker's dream road, going up and down, more or less sharp curves, few serpentines, going through amazing landscapes and enjoying beautiful views. 🤩
