We are now in the middle of our laid-back Golden Week holiday.
Today, Sunday, dawned gloriously as the sun came over the Hakone mountain range before 5:30 a.m. We were happy to wake up, spend a bit of time enjoying morning tea and coffee, then getting our motorbikes ready for a little ride.
We decided to stay mostly local - but luckily, we live near some of the nicest motorbiking roads around. We cruised down to Mishima, then up Route 1 to Hakone, where we took the Ashinoko Skyline (formerly known as the Hakone Skyline!), a fast-moving, curvy mountain road, back toward Susono, then down a narrow winding road from the Jurigi Pass to our favourite fireroad, and then along to Gotemba, eventually ending at the Gotemba Kogen where we had some lunch.
