JAMES AND I BOTH HAVE TO WORK SATURDAY

But humbly leaping into the breach is Mike S-W, with an 80-km round-trip ride up and down the Tama River. Then I’ll do a 45-km Odaiba Plus ride on Sunday.

Going to be HOT, (27-30 degrees) so slap on a lot of sunscreen, stay hydrated and generally take it easy.

And there’s still room on our gala Tokyo Bay Cruise on June 6th.

Mike’s Terrific Tama Tour

Mike will lead a ride Saturday from Futakotamagawa to the end of the bike trail near Hamura, and back.

Start and end point: Tamagawa East Park https://maps.app.goo.gl/LnGUSvntd7P8Niy4A

Depart time 10.00. The trail may be busy with walkers, other cyclists, stray baseballs etc. so we won’t be trying to break any records. But we’ll keep moving. Probably a couple of hours’ riding each way. Total 80km. Lunch may be at a cafe or convenience store parking lot depending on group size and agreed vibe. Being water & snacks for yourself anyway. Helmet. Sunscreen. Pump up your tyres and oil your chain. Mike: 080-3403-0239

Sunday Odaiba Plus

We add 15 km to the front end of our venerable Odaiba run to make a wonderful 45-km romp over bridges, along canals and through forests, largely on designated bike paths. Awesome ocean vistas. Beach bar lunch. Start at the Grand Hyatt in Roppongi Hills at 11:00 a.m.; back by about 3:30

Tokyo Bay Cruise VIII

Still room left on the elegant Marco Polo for our annual cruise around the bay on June 6. Different route this year, including the new fountain in Odaiba, claimed to be the world’s largest. Attached is a printable flyer you can run off and invite your friends. Guaranteed the best party you will go to this year.
