Morning at the Beer Garden

Yesterday we had a great ride. This was probably the best weekend, weatherwise, in a long time.

After enjoying the sakura in Hamamatsu Park on Saturday, we decided to take a bike ride up to one of the better cherry blossom viewing spots near our apartment on Sunday.

We set out at about 7:30 in the morning and enjoyed a slow ride winding through farmers' fields, slowing climbing uphill. Then we got to the Beer Hall, and went on past to continue our ride on a little trail that is behind the beer hall. All off-road climbing on the singlespeeds was exhausting, but exhilarating, too.


Our reward at the end of the ride including sitting in the beer garden, which is peppered with cherry trees, and drinking a cold beer on a warm spring morning.
