Wednesday 30th Oct Woke to a lovely sunny morning, so different from yesterday,, Once I got out the road my Garmin started to play up. I think it was operator error last night when I down loaded the map, it was sending me all over the place for the first 10 or so miles, think I had set it on Mountain bike trails my mistake. So I kept the Garmin running but reverted to MapsMe, after, this does eat up the battery on my phone, but had a couple of battery packs with me so should be OK. This route took me along the shores of Lake Hamana, very tourist place with hotels doted along the lake and all sorts of trails to follow, glad I was not following my Garmin now I would have been in forest for sure. Had a lovely 20 or so miles along the lake, quite flat and really sunny. The a nice steady climb up into the forest, stopped for a little bite to eat at the top of third climb, gentle ride and prepare some stuff for a radio interview later in the evening
