Watarase

A nice slow ride to Watarase and some meandering on the way home to clock up just over 100km.

Very windy around the lake, even too windy for the windsurfers who were all there wondering whether to go out or not. Maybe it was just too cold. Plenty of people fishing though. By the looks of things, cycling was the best option. There were a few guys doing laps of the lake but two was enough for me.
Excellent place for cycling training with big wide roads with no cars. Just on 40km to get there from here which is enough to not want to do too much hard riding ince you’re there. Wanted to have lunch there too but went to a Family Mart back near Sekiyado castle.
Which was a good place for kite flying.

Looking over Watarase and into the Gunma mountains. (some snow on the top peaks)
