Training Report - Mt.Tokachidake (Mt.Tokachi) 7It was minus 10 degrees Celsius at the Mt.Tokachidake Hot Springs where the altitude is 1280m. It was a very warm day for this season. This time, Dr.Yamamoto who rides a cyclocross bike participated in this training for the first time. Cyclocross bikes have no sophisticated studded tures but tires which have few studs. So they have advantages in the climb but disadvantages in the downhill. Travelled distance: 31km Tesseract always stayed behind Dr.Yamamoto who consumed a lot of energy. 
Tesseract who had rested behind Dr.Yamamoto's wheel won the climb cowardly riding on his own just only last 4 hecto metres. 
The veritable winner of this climb: Dr.Yamamoto arrived to the summit 33 seconds later. 
The climbing of Dr.Yamamoto was very fast. So Dr.K was left behind. He arrived to the summit 9 minutes 50 seconds later. 
Tesseract won the descent. 
Dr.K arrived to the foot 41 seconds later. 
Dr.Yamamoto arrived 1 minute 3 seconds later in spite of his studded tires which aren't suitable for descent.
