Ride Grape & Spa Route 20 (Sept. 27)

Thank you guys for joining. I enjoyed nice company and really enjoyed coaster like up and down by trekking mountains which was full of collar of warmth and perfect tranquility.
The only regret to me was I was too hurry to loose the way to hot spring. As I had no idea to find the way to there and also it was getting rapidly dark, I took train to Takao and ride back to home from there. It war really great day out. Finally, thank you Kei for organizing.

Hi all

The photographs on this day in a few days improves.
 
Thank you,I enjoyed today.

It was a road that had passed many times at the motor cycle.
It ran for the first time by bicycle.
There were a lot of discoveries.
It ran very happily today.
All by running together thank you.

Thank you for ash and the usual following.
The dandyism and the leg strength that becomes araim1, massa, and my model are respected.
Thank you for baybe, mayu, and the mood make-up.
Let's run together Caren and next time.

Did rommeigc and work succeed?
Did you come to DanS and the meeting spot?
Let's run together next time.
Thank you for Caren and participation.
It was not possible ..msimswil.. to meet.
By the way, massa and Hottarakashi-onsen were regrettable. The call was waited for because it had been thought that it was likely to have lost sight of the road.
The night view was beautiful from the hot spring. The train is running in the night view. Massa might have gotten on there.

Moreover, let's meet in October.

Thanks!

Thanks for letting me tag along for the last 25km. The 212 was a great road and I enjoyed Route 30 on the way out. I have never ridden past Uneohara before, always taken Route 33.

Katsunama really is "grape city", it was fun to ride through there.

Cheers,

Keren
 
@kei - sorry to miss your ride. Too sleepy after Fuji-san climbing on Saturday. Looks like you had a great time. Hope to catch the next one...

Documentary Pictuers

第7回目のツールは、甲府まで葡萄を食べて温泉に入りに行きました。
スタートは相模湖駅、9時30分。
国道20を中心に、県道30など、迂回して交通量の少ない静かな道を選びました。
途中には食事をするお店が全く、焼きたて手作りパンの店先で何とか凌ぎました。
ちゃんと食べられたのは勝沼のぶどう園についた3時。地元のほうとうを食べました。
ほったらかし温泉に上がる道は、とにかくきつかったです。
でもその分絶景を楽しめました。
山梨市駅前の居酒屋で生ビールを軽く飲んで、中央線輪行で帰ってきました。

It is URL of the documentary photography.
As for two cameras that kei and Baybe have, URL is different.
Hottarakashi-onsen was a taking a picture prohibition.
The superb view seen from SPA cannot be shown and it is regrettable.
The road was very a steep slope.

Kei-san et al.

Thank you for the photographs. Now I'm even more sorry that I missed the ride!

I think you were planning to take r30 between Uenohara and Torisawa, but your route map shows R20. Which road did you ride? And how was the R20 traffic on Sunday morning? Were there many trucks and cars?

And... did you spot the famous yatate-no-sugi hollow cedar tree going up Sasago-toge?

The photographs on this day in a few days improves.

Thank you msimswil !
It introduced route URL of the plan stage.
It changed to URL that had actually run. R30 passed.
The car was few, quiet roads.
It was possible to run happily in R20.
It was not too scary though 10t track had sometimes run.
Yatate-no-sugi was not seen.
It became all-out though it ran.
It will see next time.

Hello everyone who was in the ride:)!

Thank you for having me last Sunday, in Yamanashi. It was obviously NOT easy one for me, but I could make it because I was in the nice team.

I really feel sorry:(.... many of you guys could not get in the wonderful hot spa, especially Massa.... I know you were very keen about it.

The night view at the hot spa was so amazing that made me dreamy. A woman, who was in the bath with me, told me that winter is the best season to get in the outdoor bath. Many stars and many houses' light make very nice atmosphere, so she feels like she floats in the air with the spa.:eek:

Maybe again ? in this winter??? Hope to see you again.:D
