Aug 12 - Okutama lake loop
All,
I am going to challenge a route that I made, it has a few climbs and one is short and the other is long, but the decent's look sweet and the ride around Okutama lake is great.
I did a ride similar in profile to this one last weekend with Chikako, and this looks like another great ride.
I will warn you that I have not done this route so its new to me and looks challenging, so if you don't like climbing then this is not for you, but its a great chance to come out and improve your skills as the pace will be moderate to go-at-your-own-pace and I always wait at the top. This will be a really nice ride with great lake scenery, and I will make a stop for a brief lunch (place undecided as its all new to me).
I noticed two things, (1) there is obvialsly three climbs including Takao (2) the route below includes a rather long tunnel, so I'm willing to reroute around Tsuru pass.
Route:

Distance 131km, depending on where you start - I will meet people at Takao (730am) or Uenohara (830am ish).
-->August 12th
