Whilst chasing Philip down "Doshi-Michi - R413".
Philip was hauling arse after just coming down from Yamanaka-ko (Mikuni-toge before that - and there would have been 3 of us if Thomas hadn't broken his spoke).
About 6-8 motorcycles came past me on an uphill section, but as it started going down again, I went past each of them one at a time. Finally I found myself in front of all the motorbikes, but behind a blue hatch-back car. I was kind of drafting, but the hatchback was too low to make much difference, and I never had time to check my speed, as I was too busy watching for the brake-lights in front of me - only checked the "top-speed" after I'd caught up to Philip... And then he took off again (chasing some guy all the way to Hashimoto).
