Mt.Tokachidake (Mt.Tokachi) 116
Temperature: minus 3 degrees Celsius at the Tokachidake Hot Springs (Tokachidake Onsen).
We were at the beginning of October. The road surface temperature and the air temperature were so high that the snow on the road was very heavy and wet. It didn’t give enough traction. It was very difficult to ride. After the passage of the snowplough, the road surface became motorable but the snow was almost gone due to high asphalt temperature. He repeated the interval training between the summit and the altitude of 1050m. This day, many foreign tourists (a Malaysian, a Singaporean and two Americans) asked him a permission to take pictures of him. The snow cycling must be an unusual sport for them.
