CHANGEABLE

The weather forecasters’ favorite word. Translation: No friggin’ idea. 

HOWEVER

Saturday looking extremely bikeable at a cool 27 degrees and cloudy with a tiny chance of rain in the late afternoon, so I’m planning a Kasai Rinkai ride for that day. Last Saturday’s forecast rain dampened us for precisely 30 seconds. Sunday the heat returns, but on Tuesday, a national holiday, it drops back down to 27 degrees and some clouds. So how about a Tama River loop?


Come Meet Bruce

If you’re free on Wednesday evening, the 24th, drop by Hobgoblin Roppongi at around 7:00 to meet an Aussie mate who was there at the beginning (of Half-Fast). Bruce Paine will be in town briefly so come by even if you don’t know him. No wukkin’ furries! I have made a reservation under the name of “Bruce,” and we can always expand. It’s a big place. Pub grub. Please drop me a line if you’d like to participate. 


Saturday Kasai Rinkai Adventure

A visit to a beautiful seaside park across the Arakawa River, out near Disneyland. We’ll start at the Grand Hyatt in Roppongi Hills at 11, head north, cross the river, tour the park and then take the most direct route back to Odaiba for a beach bar lunch. About 50 km. Back by maybe 3:30.


Tuesday Tama Loop

Intermediate-level. 55km, easy but fast. Start at the Grand Hyatt in Roppongi Hills at 11:00 a.m. Alternate rendezvous points: KFC in Ebisu @ 11:30, Intersection of Kan-Nana and Komazawa-Dori @ 11:45, Komazawa Park @ noon, bridge at Futako-Tamagawa (Kanagawa side) @ 12:20, Gas Bashi @ 12:45 or 1:00. Long break at Jonan Jima seaside park (across from Haneda) at 1:30 or 2:00. Convenience store lunch. (Bring an eco-bag; Half-Fast frowns on single-use plastic bags.)  Please contact me if one of these meeting spots applies to you. 090-5813-6721. Back by 3:00 or 3:30.
