Mama Charinko Race

Just signed up for the Mama Charinko endurance race at Fuji Speedway next January. Will be in a team of about 15 riders, mainly fathers from the figure skating class of our daughter Karen.
A new world.

Map My Ride Software

Through TCC I was forced to use the Map My Ride Software. Which was actually good, because it is a very convenient tool to outline cycle tours on the PC, without needing GPS hardware. There might be better systems available, I don’t know but I would recommend this one to outline weekend tours and use the data for communication on the Positivo Espresso Blog.

Here is a typical example, outlining the approach to Matsuhime Toge from Okutama. I think James also used something similar when posting the tour next weekend. One can also embed the maps into the blog which I will try, hopefully it will work out.

And here is Tom’s favorite OHSMK-loop (Otarumi, Hinazuru, Suzugane, Matsuhime, Kazahari):

Tokyo Cycling Club Hall of Fame

Similar to the Positivo Espresso TOGEBAKA records, TCC has included a Hall of Fame in their website, displaying best times for various standard hill climbs in the region.

Another possibility to compare yourself against the rest of the world is the Wada Climb Site, where everyone can enter his best times for a limit number of climbs, Wada (from Takao), Yabitsu (from Hadano), Shiraishi and one other climb I do not know.
