I'm really not digging the lack of cohesiveness among us teachers so how about starting an adventure/quake3/biking/lunch group for Incheoners???

Sounds good to me. After 6 years I am about to go out of my mind due to boredom. I don't know what worse though. That I'ved lived here for 6 years or that I've lived here for 6 years doing nothing but work..........OH well Inchon isn't so bad, I guess, and my job is really good.

My job is pretty good too, 3 days off a week so what else can I do?

Going to get a kick ass bike, fix my camera and go walkabout around Incheon. Who's with me? Smile

Top idea... moved to Incheon about nine months ago and it's been a pretty decent place to live so far. Close to a subway station and within walking distance of Bupyeong which certainly helps, but it's all good.

I'd be up for anything but Quake 3. No bike yet, but looking.

Looking for bikes around Incheon has been difficult, although there is one near Bupyeong station for those looking at mid-high level MTBs.

I was told that perhaps its not worth getting a good bike though if you have a good lock then maybe that won't be a problem?

Also, consider the winter season slowly bearing on us.

I'm just looking for a high-low level Korean bike (150-200k). I know of several bike shops near me, I just have to pull the trigger.

I try to hike up Munhak once every couple of weeks. If anyone else wants to join (or has another mountain to climb) I'd be game.

There are a few Yahoo Groups I found that you could join.

One is: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/thegoosebar/

The second is: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/wayguks_in_incheon/

I just signed up for both of them. I've been in Korea for almost three years, but this is my first year in Incheon.

There was a pretty big group at Goose Goose on Friday night. Most of the teachers were from the public schools. We just got 30 new teachers in Incheon and more are coming within the next few weeks from what I've heard.

Sounds great. I used to hike up at Gwanak mountain.

So who's up for biking? I've found a nice route that I'm building up on. It includes a bike path that runs from just south of the Bus Terminal to Dong-Mak station. From there, I head along the bridge towards IFEZ. Made 32 km (home and back) today with still more bridge to cover.
