Snow Biking in Japan

cycling training on snow with road racing bikes with studded tires

Mt.Tokachidake (Mt.Tokachi) 65

Temperature: minus 9 degrees Celsius at the Tokachidake Hot Springs (Tokachidake Onsen).

The snow seemed unstable at the foot of the mountain as the road surface temperature was a little high. So he had to hurry to finish the training before the snow be gone. Therefore, he climbed faster than usual. He did the usual interval training at the summit. The descent was rapid as well. 50km/h in the corners and 70km/h in the straight. He could finish the training before the snow be gone.
