Been invited to visit my friend's hometown in Hara, Nagano.
As I've been off the bike for six weeks and have a few more weeks to go before I'm allowed to get back on the old pushrod, I'm going to spend my time constructing the best route to get there. I want it to be as scenic as possible, and from what I can tell, Takaosan > Uenohara would be nice without being vein-poppingly hard on the old climbing front. I like a challenge, but I should take it a bit easy on my first proper post-injury ride, methinks.
This is my first effort:
Any of you fine people have any input on this? The only concern I have is the tunnel at the 90km mark. It gives me bad memories of the 299 tunnel; couldn't breathe, unbearably loud and frankly slightly terrifying.
