Ura Wada


Jerome and I started a few minutes after 7AM, went up the river, then out One-kansen (the headwind along the Tamagawa made us eager to turn off sooner rather than later), along the N. side of Tsukui-ko, then out Doshimichi, onto Rte 76, then up the back side of Wada, down Jimba-Kaido and then the usual Asagawa/Tamagawa return. ... the same ride as I took a week ago Saturday, but with one more short climb added on Doshimichi and an extra 300 meters of elevation coming back over Wada instead of Otarumi. It was a good 140km ride, with lots of up and down, on a beautiful day. We prevailed on a customer of the Witch of Wada Touge to snap our photo in front of the commemorative stone celebrating completion of the Wada forest road (above).

Equally impressive as Michael's tour. I really missed out on something today. I'll make up for it tomorrow!!
