Things People Do On A Friday
By Ruthy Kanagy
This is Ruthy with the SatRDay
in Tokyo. I had a wonderful cycling trip to Hokkaido earlier this month. With
some trepidation, being my first solo tour, I flew from Tokyo to the northern
tip of Hokkaido with my SatRDay plus trailer. I biked south and east along the
Okhotsk coast, camping at night (until I got too tired and started staying at
hot spring inns, a nice option in Japan and wonderful for weary legs). I met numerous
young guy cyclists and motorcyclists who all waved and cheered and I completed
550 km into strong headwinds over two weeks. Temperatures around 16 C like Oregon.
What a thrill
to breathe clean air, race butterflies and count cows. The biggest surprise was
bumping into another BF owner on the tiny island of Rishiri, Hirano Kenzo, young
Pocket
Llama owner. He says to say hi to Steve, who sold it to him. We camped at
the same place under a lighthouse between a volcano and the sea.
