27 November 2008

Sun30th

I would like to ride this Sunday, proposing Takao and back on the following route.
Ebisu stn. 7am, 120km, back by midday.
Any takers?
Obv. can add or subtract to this as you see fit.

I may hop on at my house on Sunday morning and at least ride out with you. ... strongly recommend that you add an extra 15 minutes to the ride and try the route we took along the S. side of Lake Tsukui (Rte. 513 -- and over the bridge adn the nice climb on the North shore of the lake (see Michael's post and my GPS route). Much nicer than just going straight along the S. edge of the lake in traffic and over the dam.; 27 November, 2008
Jimmy Shinagawa said...: I have checked your GPS in more detail and it looks like a great route.. I should be able to download it to my 705 and follow it on the day.. something to try at least..

Currently 3 confirmed for Sunday, 4 maybes including yourself David..

I assume some will turn back before Takao to get back to Tokyo earlier..; 27 November, 2008

There is a 7-Eleven West of the bridge paralell to the road along the Tamagawa. This is a good meeting point.

But I got a terrible cold, I am not sure if I can ride tomorrow.; 29 November, 2008
