The reopening of one of the highlights on the C2C, the run through the snow walls on the climb up the 292 to the highest point on a national road in Japan, is on schedule and only a few days before we are set to roll through there.
Here you are Twistybutts, this is the sticker for this year’s Coast to Coast. Hope you like it.

Thanks to all those who’ve requested extra stickers.
Due to popular demand, this year’s C2C, being the 12th running, will be a no holds barred Dirty Dozen Anniversay Race to the Sea of Japan! The winner will be bathed in victory’s glory and the wounds and tears of their adversaries.
Currently seeking entrants with medical trauma care experience to ride armoured Ambulance Cubs.
