Thanks guys for the excellent ride.. took longer than I anticipated but thoroughly enjoyable all the same.. Yabitsu Pass is a fantastic climb, but we need a route home from the bottom to keep away from the trains.. I know everyone will join me in wishing Michael good luck this coming weekend at Saiko.. I am thinking the ‚rest‘ of us might do a Takao trip on Sunday, but perhaps come back along a similar route that Jerome would have used after he left us on the weekend.. TBD.

    Thanks for planning the ride, and you will need to start declaring a „ride by“ time for my house if you get a group of 4-5 people to start at Ebisu. for a 6:30 Ebisu start, it is really a 6:50 „ride by“ my house, not 7:00 AM.Sorry I could not go all the way to Yabitsu, but I had a good ride back with Tim Hewitt. He does not go fast (yet), but does not seem to have any problem plugging away. We picked a great place to turn off — very nice riding with minimal traffic along Rte 513 until we got back down to Tsukui-ko (thanks to Graham Davis for showing this route to David Jacob and me last year), and then continued on 513 — crossed the lake on the bridge and climbed along the ridge on the North side of the lake — staying off the congested main road (413) as long as possible. I recommend this whenever possible as a way to get through the Tsukui-ko area.I am joining Michael and Jerome at Saiko, so I hope we can ride again week after next.

    I have just added the riding profile from my CICLO bike computer, please have a look at the blog if you are interested.It was a very pleasant ride with the largest group perhaps we were ever been able to assemble.Yabitsu is my favourite climb, a beautiful landscape and a gradual climb. I guess we need to continue to search for a way to expand this ride from Yabitsu to somewhere.
