Only 2 rides for 3 days......We had a plan
to take 4 long rides at least in Oita Prefecture
from Mar.3 to 5.The Kunisaki Pen.on the 3
and the Yufuin Highlands on the 4 and 5.On
the first day the weather was so so and we
enjoyed the riding.The next morning we were
very excited that the course was rough and
winding.The guide said riders were spilled
very often.If you stayed for the riding there
for a couple of weeks,you might
be a very good rider.Unfortunately it
began to snow at around 11 o'clock and got
heavier and heavier.So we could not ride
in the afternoon.The weather on the last
day was beautiful,but the snow covered the
road.We gave up on riding and went to a spa.Oita
Pref. is famous as a hot spring region
and for SEKI-SABA(mackerel) and SHIROSHITA-KAREI(butt).The
pix below are at the Kunisaki Pen.The landscape
is similar to Uchinada in Kanazawa,but the
length of the beach is much shorter,about
400m or so. |
