Today's ride was rather uneventful with not much of a scenery worth to stop for pictures,in fact today i took very few pictures compared to previous days. Started at 7.45 morning facing the strongest head wind so far and on a very busy route 40 on the way to Asahikawa. Especially dangerous are those big trucks, some went passed me with high speed,a couples of times i was almost blown off balance. The rear hub looks like is getting more serious,and at one stage,i thought it would finally gave way,as i couldn't get it engaged,but luckily somehow it works again. Arrived in a big town of Asahikawa,but still unable to find a high end bike shop which might have a new rear hub to replace. And to add to the misery, is i couldn't find the campground shown on the map, finally i had to camp under the flyover as it was already getting dark at 5 pm. Hopefully tomorrow a better day to come.

On the way to Asahikawa looking for hi-end bike shop |
Funny bus stop |
Tunnels help to reduce climbing |
Enough lighting and space for the bike |
Shrines are common in Japan like temple to the Chinese |
Getting dark,desperately looking for place to camp |
Well this is the best i can find - under the flyover bridge |
