Australian filmmakers, Rian Cope and Dylan Brayshaw have been on a self-supported bicycle touring & surfing adventure on the island nation of Taiwan. Beginning in Taipei (the capital city) in the north, they met up with the Taipei Fixie Crew, a fast growing urban cycle culture.
Traversing the east coast of Taiwan’s mainland, searching for secret waves beneath the stunning back drop of the Qingshui Cliffs, the Taroko Gorge, and Wuling Pass (2375m).
