10C第6天環臺心得分享

Brian Cheng

這次的單車環台可以說是康橋所有精英課程中最俱有挑戰性的，比起之前的爬嘉明湖還有泳渡日月潭都還要困難且危險許多。也因為他危險，每位同學也都為了增加體能還有團隊默契很努力的訓練。透過這次活動，我不僅學到了更多的單車知識，同時我跟同學的默契還有感情也更好了。當然騎乘的過程中我也領悟到了台灣的美還有大自然的美妙。學校有要求我們各個班要在環台的每個夜晚做台灣各個地方的報告。而透過這些報告也讓同學們學到台灣各個縣市的特色景點，歷史，文化還有古蹟。只能說這次的旅行不只是體力的考驗，更適一個吸取知識的好機會。

This cycling around Taiwan trip could count as the most grueling one out of all the challenges we’ve been through, such as the climbing of Jia-Min Lake in 8th grade and swimming across Sun Moon Lake in 9th. Besides it being very challenging, it is also the most dangerous one out of them all. Yet, because of its dangers, our whole class felt more united than ever to conquer this difficult task. After this trip, apart from learning a lot of biking-related information, I also became closer to all of our classmates. Also, I saw a lot of parts of Taiwan that was very different from Taipei, such as its nature. The school did require each class to make a report on each county that we were going to pass or stay in. I gained a lot of knowledge on the popular tourist attractions, its history, and the famous historical sites. In conclusion, this trip was not only a difficult task for the body to conquer, but it was also a perfect opportunity to learn new information.

今天已經是環臺的第六天了，也已經過了一半，一早從YOHO度假村出來大家都很不捨，因為來到了墾丁卻不能好好的玩一玩。

在今天的騎乘中非常的炎熱，一路上的風景都相當的美麗。所以騎乘起來分外輕鬆，而且想到明天的成年禮，也是令我們非常的期待… 因為經過這一次的環臺考驗，之後我們就是成年了，對我們的行為舉止要有所負責，再也不能像以前那樣幼稚。再則想到父母對我們的期待與栽培，我們更應該要好好用功。想到這裡，之前的辛苦似乎也不算什麼了。前幾天跟昨天都已經騎完最困難的路段：北宜和壽卡，接下來的路程，相信對大家而言都是輕而易舉, 遊刃有餘，也希望接下來的路程大家一路平安，完成這次的環臺活動。

We’re already half way done with our cycling around Taiwan trip! Most classmates felt sad when we had to leave the YOHO villa this morning because they wanted to go site seeing in Kenting.

This was a extremely hot day, but the view was very pretty so it made the ride seem easier than expected. I was also really looking forward to the Rite of Passage Ceremony tomorrow, so it also took my mind off the hard riding trip. After this whole biking trip, we could be considered as an adult, so we should feel more responsible for our actions. Furthermore, I thought about my parents’ expectations towards me, so we should all work harder. When I thought of these, the challenges all seemed like nothing. The first few days were the most difficult ones, so I believe that the rest of the trip would be a piece of cake for us! I wish all of the 10th graders a safe trip.

從小開始騎車對我來說就是個很大的挑戰，今天能騎壽卡我覺得很驕傲，能成功完成這段路帶給我的艱辛挑戰我很開心，所有車訓早起的無奈與大雨的冷都有了回報！這次的旅程也是我們大家最後一次出去，我也會盡可能地把握與大家相處的時光，努力的和大家完成挑戰。

Since I was young, riding my bike had always been a difficult challenge. I am pretty proud of myself for completing Shoka. I am very happy that I overcame this obstacle because this means that all of the trainings beforehand were not a waste of time. This trip is probably going to be the last time when our whole class would get to go out together, so I will cherish every moment.

今天是騎車的第六天，行程是從屏東到高雄，上午要騎70公里左右因為下午回到高雄市區，車子很多紅綠燈也很多所以可能要花費比較多時間，所以早上才會盡量騎多一點，上午的地形是上上下下的，緩坡比較多，所以不會很累，唯一美中不足的是天氣，太陽很炎熱，大家騎到都快中暑了，但老師們和領騎都一直提醒我們喝水，所以大家還是都有騎完，下午大多都是平路，在市區裡面車子很多，人也很多，我們都在等紅綠燈，騎了30多公里終於到福容飯店了，心中無比的開心！

This is the 6th day of our cycling around Taiwan trip, and our itinerary is from Pingtung to Kaohsiung. We rode about 70km in the morning because the afternoon route is in Kaohsiung city, which had lots of traffic lights. The morning terrain was a mixture of uphills and downhills, so it wasn’t as tired as expected. The only downside of this day was the weather since it was too hot. Some people were already getting under the weather, but the leader kept on reminding us to drink enough water. Our whole class successfully completed today’s journey. The afternoon route was generally more flat, and we only rode about 30km. I am very happy because we finally arrived in Fullon Hotel.

不知不覺環島已經第6天了，有點想家了。現在的我腳好酸好累好想泡熱水澡跟吃牛肉麵。在真正環島之前我從來沒有想過自己能騎到這一步，很高興自己能夠堅持下去也為自己感到驕傲。每天在騎車的時候可以放下所有事情好好的欣賞台灣的美，感受大自然的歡迎。從小就住在台灣的我其實很多地方都沒有去過，剛好可以趁著這次的環台旅行去我沒有去過的地方，體驗我沒體驗過的文化還有品嚐各地的美食。我很謝謝爸媽朋友和老師的支持以及學校費盡心力為我們規劃這個活動。這次的環台旅行大家的感情都變好了也都成長了不少，我很開心能有這個機會去體驗不同事情也挑戰自己！

I can’t believe that it’s already the 6th day of our cycling trip! I am already kind of homesick, and my legs are really sore. I also really want to take a hot bath and eat beef noodle soup. I never expected to really get to this stage of the trip, and I’m very proud of myself for going on. When I’m riding my bike, I could forget all of my troubles and just focus on Taiwan’s natural beauty. I’ve been living in Taiwan my whole life, yet there are still a lot of places in Taiwan that I’ve never even been to. This is a perfect opportunity for me to learn more about Taiwan and to try each county’s famous cuisines. I am very thankful for my parents, friends, and the teachers for the extensive planning of this trip. I am very happy that I have such an amazing chance to challenge myself to the limit.

從知本出發的那一天，心裡充滿了緊張跟興奮，滿腦子都是爬著壽卡的畫面。畢竟我不知道所謂的壽卡長什麼樣子，但經過同學們，老師們的形容，在我心中壽卡是一座無比高大的牆壁。在陽光普照的日子下，到了壽卡的入口，從原本的陣容，變為衝鋒陣容，而我是其中一個成員。從衝鋒陣容出發，一出發就看到每一班不一樣的人停下來，有的坐著，有的哭著，對壽卡的恐懼越來越多。騎著騎著，伴隨著汗水，逐漸發現其實壽卡只是個普通的公路，擁有很多的上坡。慢慢的追上了前面的班級，我們的速度越來越快，見到頂點的時間也越來越短。一路上唱著歌，歌曲彷彿像一股力量推著我們上去。到了頂點了，疲勞感或任何說明累的形容詞，都不適用在我們身上。就這樣我們班一路順利的一起攻頂，雖然有些人脫隊了，但我們班的精神就是不能放棄。在挑戰一個關卡時，並不要因別人的說明而畏懼，反而要自己去挑戰，自己去體驗。

When we started from Zhiben, I was both excited and kind of nervous. My brain was full of imaginations of what Shoka looks like. I’ve never been there, but in my mind, Shoka looks like a really tall wall. Under the heavy beating of the sun, we slowly arrived to Shoka’s entrance. I already saw a lot of people from other classes walking their bikes, and the fear in my mind started growing. Slowly, we started climbing the mountain, and we found out that Shoka was actually a pretty ordinary road. We caught up to the class before us, and our energy was powered by the songs that we were singing. At the top of the mountain, tired was just another adjective to describe us, but the majority of our class successfully got there! The spirit of our class is “Never give up!” When reaching an obstacle in life, don’t be scared from listening to others descriptions, we should go and experience it ourselves.

此時此刻我的腦海裡只有開心，我終於完成了最辛苦的106公里了。我現在除了腳以及腰痛以外，其餘的都是開心。今天真的是說累不累，說長也不長。我還蠻開心今天都是騎平路的。我啊，對於今天真的是只有想睡而已哈哈哈。完成了106公里，剩下的就應該蠻簡單的吧。我很感謝今天我的朋友們都定時的關心我身體狀況的，雖然後面還是因為晃了神導致後腳破皮，但我還是完成了最後的106公里。其實當時我的心裡不是很開心，因為前一天才騎完壽卡，隔天又要騎106公里，當時的我真的是氣瘋了。來到了福容飯店，心裡也喘了口氣，因為艱難的路途已經完成了。接下來也就是我們的成年禮了，隔了六天，終於能見到我的家人了，我很開心也很期待。但這也代表著，我們的旅程也快走向終點了，現在我們只能好好把握接下來的活動了。

No words could describe the happiness that I’m feeling right now. I finally conquered a 106km trip. Besides being sore in the back and the legs, I’m still extremely happy. Today’s route was not that tiring nor long, but I’m still sleepy. After finishing 106km, the rest should be a really easy. I’m very thankful towards my friends who kept on encouraging me and taking a care in me. In the afternoon, I lost focus and accidentally scraped my feet. Actually, I wasn’t happy at all in the morning because we just finished Shoka yesterday. When I arrived at Fullon, I am very happy because I finished the most difficult part of the trip!

烈焰的太陽高高掛在藍藍的天空中，毫無一絲多餘的白雲，看似晴朗的一天對於康橋的環台勇士來說卻是必須克服的一大難題，沒有樹蔭，沒有高樓，在這完全沒有遮蔽物的路程中，我們進行第六天的環島活動，從屏東一路騎到高雄，106公里的路程，首先襲擊我們的是濃濃的睡意，炎熱的夏天就是要到海邊曬個日光浴，好好睡一覺，但我們卻踩著踏板、帶著睡意慢慢向前，這時候，就是要考驗我們的團隊精神了，高喊著班呼，再來高歌一曲，打起精神，大家一起向前邁進。然後，我們遇上自行車的強敵：逆風，以領騎為破風手，三十多人的車隊勇敢迎向逆風，根本不把這位強敵放在眼裡。這六天是我人生中體會過最漫長的六天，想回家的心情，想睡到中午的心情，大家都一樣，所以，同學們，讓我們一起加油，一起努力，讓這十二天過的多采多姿吧！
