Asahina sunken road and the Great Buddha statue of Hase.
Kamakura was a Japanese capital, from 1185 to 1333.
It has been 10 years since I last went to Kamakura.

The Asahina sunken road is unpaved and has a sense of an old atmosphere.

It is a weekday, but Tsuruoka-Hachimangu Shrine and the Great Buddha statue of Hase are full of tourists today. I saw a lot of primary and high school students on excursions.

On my way out, I passed by the United States Navy Fukaya Communication Site and saw an unexpected view of Mt. Fuji.
The Fukaya Communication Site is decided to return, and competition for the development of the ruins is performed.

　98.25Km

This Golden Week, we were blessed with good weather. "Golden Week", it is Japanese English.
It is a period of many holidays continuing from the end of April to the beginning of May.

On the last day of the Golden Week, I cycled on the country road of Doshimura village and went to the Yamanakako, one of the Fuji Five Lakes.

There was a little natural fishing pond on the shore of the Doshigawa river. On my return trip, I cycled down a steep slope, with an incline of 18%, while looking down at Fuji Speedway Circuit. I cannot give the speed going down a steep slope. I continued pulling brakes.

Fuji and the Yamanakako were covered with a spring haze.

176.44Km. This is the record of my small wheel bike.

The best temperature of slightly-above 20 degrees Celsius(68 F) has finally developed.
The best season for cycling has come.

I cycled on the embankment of the Tama River in the prefectural border of Tokyo and Kanagawa today.
This road is for the exclusive use of cyclists and joggers.

From this photograph, the river looks clean.
However, the transparency of the water is clearly different from the river in the countryside because this river is close to the city.

The old road to the former Komine tunnel was closed to vehicles, so I was able to cycle leisurely.

Total distance 93.24Km。
