First attempt at a pizza run for 2014 with a tried and true classic route. We'll cycle up the Arakawa, up and over Shiraishi-toge, descending for lunch at the pizza place, them back up Sadamine, descending the other side and then Nihongi-toge after that before finally ending at Ogawamachi Station. Please, note the slightly earlier meeting time.
INFO:
Meet Time: 7:30am
Meet Place: Family Mart (HERE)
Climbing: 1500-1800m
Distance: 115-125km
Route: HERE
Just FYI, two weeks ago there was still snow at the top of Shiraishi-toge. It's been warm since then, and I expect that it's cleared. If for some reason it hasn't, we'll descend back down Shiraishi and take an alternate backup route north to the Takasaki Line. See HERE for alternative route.
