22nd Bike Tour between Moriya and Tsukuba

Smoothly and Comfortably : 22nd Bike Tour between Moriya and Tsukuba, 2010/01/30

I started LOC City in Moriya at 10:20 and passed the 15 km point at 10:30 which was just after passing through Joso-Bridge along Kokai-River. Along Kokai-River I proceeded smoothly forward to northern direction to Kashima-Shrine where I took a short rest for 15 minutes from 10:50 there, which was at the 22.8 km point soon before Yamato=Bridge at 23 km point. I went through the Dame at Fukuoka of Kokai-River and went along Root 220 from Suwayama to Mase, moved to Banpaku-Park Station and arrived Mizuho Market at 11:40 safely and very smoothly. I stayed there for 20 minutes, drinking a bottled water and eating tomato, rice balls, peanuts, KIMUCHI, spinach, a lotus root [rhizome] and so on. Finally I could reach N* at 12:20 much pleasantly. It therefore took just 2 hours(1 hour and 25 minutes by Bike and 35 minutes for a break time) from Moriya to Tsukuba by Bike this morning. I took boiled egg, banana, two pieces of cheese and a small tip of baguette in my lunch box at room 5**. Afterwards, I took a bath at the welfare building alone but in luxury. I stayed to rearrange baggage walking to several warehouse up and down.

I 'm now here at Tsukuba Central Library. I got off N* at 15:15 and walked into Convention Hall where was opened Critical-Pass Poster Session by nurses and related people from various Hospitals. Then I moved to Kapio where Spring Flower Festival was opened.  But I did not enter it because it was not free and was necessary to pay some entrance fee. I got to Tsukuba Central Library at 15:40. It was no wind and comfortable to walk the Promenade in such a warm day, maybe temperature became over 15 degrees C, because I could pass this afternoon with only sweat and without coat for winter season.

I took a local TX train starting Tsukuba Station at 17:44 and returned back Moriya Station at 17:01. I went to LOC City on foot and spended 40 minutes for Body Massage by Chair、after watching window shopping and buying Banana and Bean Curd. At last I came back to home at 18:40. That is all of an episode of the 22nd Bike Tour between Moriya and Tsukuba.
