Ride Day Eight – Sukumo to Imabari

Well, it was supposed to soak us with rain, but what the heck, it was not too bad at all! (except for the slippery wet pavement, but more on that later…)

Of course, there were mechanical failures – both Bridger and I had 2 flats each and a couple of minor repairs. That said, I did have a bit of a fall this day – wet pavement, too fast a downhill. Got to say, it should have been filmed, looked just like a Tour De France type wreak – about 25 miles per hour around a sweeping curve and BAM, Doug and bike parts skidding all over the road. Fortunately, got put back together to finish the day, but will have a great souvenir scar!!:
