I am another newbie and riding only for 6 months. I regularly go to Enoshima, Kamakura from my home once a week which is, i think, 35km - 40km one way. I also rode to Shibuya once from Soubudai where i live which is about 40km but 3 or 4 hill climbs included. I got this idea of hill climbing to Mt Fuji 5th station, of course i will have to go Mt. Fuji from my home by bicycle first which i don't know probably over 60 km to go there then do hill climbing and afterwards ride back home again. My question is, in order to do this crazy idea of mine what kind of training i need? I go to gym regularly 4 days a week to keep in shape by the way.
Also was wondering are there any other riders around or near Sobudai whom i can join for a friendly ride.
