David (trucksan) and I were thinking of doing a moderate (pace & distance) ride down Boso way; might be an option if your inner bear is still hibernating and not yet ready for Sergey's faster run.
What: Short (110km) run through the hilly backroads of inner Boso at a moderate/LSD/winter miles/tempo/back in the saddle/sub-prime rate.
Where: Start and end at Honda Station.
When: Feb 6th. 9:30AM rollout. Should be back by 4pm latest.

South on the 128/147, which is the quickest and flattest route south into the mid-peninsula, then we hit the hills and rindos starting with the 172 (a new road for TCC rides). Up and down the rest of the way until we get back to Honda. Reasonably relaxed road bike pace. Might be a good option for TCC/Boso first-timers.
Usual train info
The JRエアポート成田・成田空港行 (JR Airport Narita) leaves Yokohama at 7:39, Shinagawa at 8:01, and Kinshicho at 8:18 direct to Chiba, where you can switch to the 8:54 Sotobo Line train to Honda, arr. 9:08. Other option is the JR Keiyo to Soga, then switching to the same Honda-bound train.
Meeting is at south exit. I'll have the car for anyone who needs to stow bags etc. (No lockers in the station).
