Three rides up this Saturday; none for Sunday as yet; and a heads-up for one of Francois’s two-day rides next weekend.
James will do an early-start Arakawa loop that may or may not meet up with my usual Odaiba ride, and Oneris will take a group out Okutama way.
Tokyo Bay Cruise IV Update
The boat’s full. Those who have signed up please be sure you know where to go to catch the boat.
Saturday — James: Arakawa Loop

70 km. Go past the Imperial Palace, through Ochanomizu, around the back of Ueno, Yanaka-Ginza, across the Sumida-gawa to the Arakawa. Then a solid 16 km downstream to Tokyo Bay before crossing over to Kasai Seaside Park and return to Grand Hyatt before 1pm.

Saturday — Don: Odaiba Beginners’
Start at the Grand Hyatt in Roppongi Hills at 11:00 a.m. for an easy lope out to the beach for a brew or two. 30km, back by 2:30 at the latest.
Saturday — Oneris: Okutama Ride
We're planning to do a saturday ride to Okutama, it is doing this route (but cutting it short at 77 kilometer) returning from Okutama station https://www.strava.com/activities/1942429772 since it is riding all the way through tama-gawa people can join anywhere on the way, we're planning to leave from hiyoshi around 8:30 but a good meeting point could be musashi-kosugi (8:45) or futako-tamagawa (9:20), please text/call me in advance to coordinate where to meet my line user is garciaoneris and my phone number is 08023620996. Bring spares and water, we'll stop in a couple of coffee shops during the ride, but there are some sections without not even a conbini, so also a snack would be wise...

NEXT WEEKEND
June 8-9 Tour d'Izu.
We follow Izu peninsula's coastline as much as possible so as to avoid traffic and tunnels. We leave at different points the main road to ride through small villages what will slightly increase the total elevation.
Day 1: Atami - Shimoda
We stop at Jogasaki kaigan (Cliff), Atagawa onsen (very hot spring), Kujuppama beach (bring your swim gear if you want to get wet and some cleat cover as the slope is quite steep)
We stay in Minami Shimoda in a minshuku. ca. 8-9000 Yen with dinner and breakfast.
Route: http://www.mapmyride.com/jp/atami-shizuoka/izu-day-1-route-72752926
Distance: 110 km

Day 2: Shimoda - Numazu
This is the tougher day. Expect a long day on the saddle (the target is to finish between 5 and 6). Less traffic than day 1 but the road goes up and down for 90k following beautiful scenery (we stop several times for snapshots).
