Saturday, 21st - FLAT... river ride!
I know! I know! Everyone's been hitting the hills, and here I am spouting the "F" word!
The course I have planned is actually not mine at all - Thanks go to Pete (Yamabushi) for this one too - Pete's got quite a repertoire of rides in the bag.
This Saturday, 21st.
Anyway, it's basically a completely flat (there's that "F" word again!) century.
3 Rivers! Arakawa - Tonegawa - Edogawa.
Starting from the usual place (Family Mart, on Rte.17), and heading up the Arakawa as far as Kumagaya. There's a nice little ramen shop there, where we can replace some carbs. From there, we'll head northeast for about 10km until we hit the Tonegawa, and we'll follow it all the way around to where it splits, and we'll come down Edogawa (on the Saitama side), until we get back to Tokyo.
Here's the map:

*Note: The map shows the starting place as my apartment - PLEASE don't come here. We'll meet at the Family Mart!
Time: 8:00 - Roll-out at 8:15
Medium pace, minimum stops.
BTW, It will be HOT! DON'T forget your sunscreen, and two water bottles (if you can manage it).
Any takers?
Travis
