WHO said it was ok to roll, checked the Geiger stations and forecast wind direction/weather and all was favorable. So fired up the FuzZ and went searching for X-Men powers.
No-one on the roads and great weather 5-12degC.

Met up with JamesK early and went touge hunting. James was on fire and when I headed home, happy with 8 touges for the morning, he went out and had Okutama for an afternoon snack!

Set the alarm for a 6:30 wake up but woke up at 5 and couldn’t drift off again. 30 minutes later I gave up the fake slumber and got to it. By 6:30 we were on the road, under a gorgeous dawn sky, headed for Izu. FZ1 & I that is. (more…)

So today it’s the sunday-squirt write up.
All of us have a favorite road, set of roads or a route that includes some cool roads. Kantonians know the Izu skyline and most know the west Izu run or the Doshi-Fuji Skyline-469 trifecta and I had a great run around the back of Asama-yama, in Nagano, on a seemingly endless roller coaster of bitchin backroads a few months back. The unfortunate thing is some of these roads are too far away and others are just too well known by all the wrong people.
So, where do you go for a good Sunday ride?
