Diary
As I left one hour later, it began the Golden Weel 2007!! It was fine, roads and landscape were great. But my condition was not good. I fought with the signs "bike is prohibited", I reached Karuizawa. I descended 40km to Ueda. I ran 100km, but somethings were strange. It was the quiet begining of this spring.
