Monday 21st October My bed in the traditional Japanese Inn was surprising comfortable, just a thin mattress laid out on the wooden floor and a weird pillow. With no breakfast supplied had a croissant, coffee and bananas brought from the local store the previous night, said my thanks to the owners and made an early start.
My plan was to head to Fukui, through a couple of ski resorts, via the Port of Tsurga, though nothing booked just pedal and see how it goes.
The road was not that busy, thankfully as it was not that wide, the first part was just a bit bumpy before a steady climb past the ski slopes of Kunizaki snow park, quite a nice climb just steady nothing to serious, though it did get the legs burning after a couple of weeks out of the saddle.
Before I knew I was coming into the Port of Tsuga, nice to see the sea, kept to the outskirts of the town, rather than going through the middle. As the road got steeper, I hit the first of a series of 7 tunnels all about 1000m long,very well lit, but not much room and really noisy. Stopped for lunch at a shrine over looking the bay, really nice spot and a nice bowl of noddle soup, the guy took the meat out of it for me!
After lunch stayed on the coast for a while, met a group of Chinese cyclists touring in Japan, had a nice chat exchanged are details hopefully they will get in touch again. Then headed in land, were it started to get very built up again through the city of Echizen and stayed like that all the way to Fukui. I stopped at a 7-11 just before Fukui as they have a good WIFI and sorted out a hotel, before I rolled into town, ready for anther Osen then some food, before sorting out tomorrows ride.
