The full path stretches about 40 km from Gunmun Bridge to Paengseong Bridge — flat terrain, mostly dedicated bike lanes, good for a longer ride if you have the time. --- ## Hours & Rules | | | | ----------------- | -------------------------------------------- | | **Days** | Tuesday – Sunday (closed Mondays & holidays) | | **Open** | 10:00 AM – 5:00 PM | | **Rental window** | 10:00 AM – 4:00 PM | | **Return by** | 4:30 PM | | **Max rental** | 2 hours | On weekends the 2-hour limit is enforced more strictly since more people are waiting. --- ## How It Works 1. Show up during rental hours 2. Hand over your **ID** (passport, military ID, or Korean ID — they hold it while you ride) 3. Fill out a short form with your phone number 4. Pick a bike, grab a free helmet, and go That's it. No app, no credit card, no membership. --- ## What Bikes Are Available The Segyo station has around 40 adult city bikes (with front baskets), plus about 10 kids' bikes. They also have **tandem bikes** and bikes with **rear child seats** — useful if you're riding with family. Both stations combined have 60+ bikes total. They're basic city bikes — upright, comfortable, nothing fancy. Fine for cruising the path. --- ## Where to Ride **From Segyo (Tongbokcheon):** The Tongbokcheon path is a simple out-and-back along the stream. About 10 km total. Flat and paved. It connects toward the Jinwicheon bike path and Sopung Picnic Garden if you want to extend the ride. **From Oseong (Anseongcheon):** The riverside path here is longer — up to 40 km if you do the full route. It also connects to the **Pyeongtaek Lake cycling loop** (13 km north section, 11 km south section), which passes the UN Forces Memorial and Pyeongtaek Lake Art Park. Both paths are part of Pyeongtaek's 8 designated cycling routes. If you're into stamp collecting, there are 6 bike passport certification booths throughout the city. --- ## Good to Know - **Completely free** — no hidden fees, no deposit - **Foreign ID works** — passport or military ID accepted - **Helmets included** — provided at the station - **2-hour limit** — plan accordingly, especially on weekends - **Closed Mondays** — and public holidays - The stations are run by a local social cooperative (평택지역자활센터), not a private company --- ## Worth a Visit? If you've been thinking about getting into cycling but haven't committed to buying a bike yet, this is a zero-risk way to try it. Borrow a bike, ride along the stream for an hour, and see how it feels. And if you find yourself wanting more after two hours on a city bike — you know where to find us. --- *Platoon Cycles is located in Pyeongtaek, near Camp Humphreys.
