Mt.Tokachidake (Mt.Tokachi) 141
Temperature: minus 5 degrees Celsius at the Tokachidake Hot Springs (Tokachidake Onsen).
He was supposed to go to train with his third bike. However, it had a problem with the chain connecting pin which had become loose (Probably it couldn’t resist to the cold of Hokkaido because of different expansion rate of two materials. That explains why the chain was severed during Mt.Tokachidake 103 at the connecting pin.). So he went to train with his second bike. It took about a half hour so that the road surface was completely crusted or ice covered after the snow removal. He climbed two times this day and repeated the interval training at the summit.
