Today started with a 4 hour van ride to a remote area on Shikoku Island. Did a bike fit and a spin to make sure the old body remembered why I was here – to ride a bike and not a barstool.
This is a profile of todays ride – short and sweet:

OK, maybe not so sweet, that squiggly line was a bugger of a climb! But we made it just in time for dinner with the group – at the Buffet Banquet Room – wearing our yakura, as tradition demands. Truly a scene straight out of a Wes Anderson film. Doesn’t Bridger look so cute!!?? You’ll notice there is no shot of me, I am way to old and wise to let that sort of nonsense get posted.
And a pic of the whole group – It is a big one, and we have yet to meet everyone, but so far, so good!!!
Food was really good, even though had no idea what we were eating – well, the stuff you could not recognize. The ol’ tastebuds got a wakeup call or two!
Even though this was from last night’s dinner, I just could not let it pass – the newest addition to the lakehouse bar!
