Hi, I had turned off the list while I was on vacation but I had a great time on vacation in japan. Alas I didn't get take any of my bikes with me but I had an opportunity to ride a couple of rented bikes and an afternoon bike tour while I was away. There's little riv-relationship other than fantastic scenery and location but I wanted to share this with folks who would appreciate it.
Pictures here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/skvidal/sets/72157631625589636/ I took a bike tour from these folks: http://www.satoyama-cycling.com/ in the gifu prefecture of japan -the town is called hida-furukawa. The tour ended up going all over the area and took about 4hours. As you can see from the picture a fairly beautiful location. If anyone happens to be in the area I'd recommend taking a tour from them. The tour leader was fantastic and if you're japanese isn't very good, don't worry, they speak english very well. We biked up and down the region, refilled our water bottles from the mouth of a mountain spring and then sat next to a shrine and watched a storm start to roll into the area. It was kinda great. if I had one of my own bikes I'm sure it would have been slightly more comfortable but as it was, it was still pretty great. thanks, -sv -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
