CARPE DIEM
Is what we need to do this sunny weekend, as next Saturday and Sunday are not looking so bike-friendly as of this writing. So I’m thinking a quick run out to Jonan on Saturday and a slightly more ambitious Odaiba Plus on Sunday.
Please bring along an eco-bag for any convenience store lunches.
Saturday Jonan Jima Beginners’
A quick, 30-km jaunt out to the beach park across from Haneda Airport. Start at the Grand Hyatt in Roppongi Hills at 11:00 a.m. The weather at the start point will be 15 degrees, but with a wind chill of 13 due to some strong (but decreasing) winds. So bundle up. (Michelle is even considering gloves!) Convenience store lunch. Back by 2:00 probably.
Sunday Odaiba Plus
So named as it’s our standard Odaiba run, but with 15 or 20 km tacked on to the front end to make the total about 45km. Route goes along canals and rivers, by a windmill and past the “dinosaur bridge.” High of maybe 17 and less wind. Start at the Hyatt at 11:00. Snacks at the beach bar. Back by 3:30 at the latest. Coffee.
=======================
P.S.: Nothing to do with biking, but I need to move before the spring and I’m looking for a real estate lawyer that speaks English. Or any creative housing solutions.
