Ep.113 Climbing to Yakumo - Cycling Hokkaido

What this episode covers

The ride to Yakumo is turning into an annual thing. Yay! This year I decided to take on the hills and ride through the middle of Hokkaido. I rode from Ishikari to Jozankei, over the Nakayama Pass, down to Kimobetsu, through to Makkari, over to Niseko, a jaunt to Rankoshi then down to Yakumo. A most excellent ride with a HELLUVA lotta climbing. The scenery was great but even better than that was the people I met along the way. Ya gotta love meeting awesome people doing awesome things out there, eh!? That was definitely the last ride of that size for the year and I'm stoked I got it done. I hope you like this episode of the Cycling Hokkaido podcast and are having fun out there.
