		<description><![CDATA[Original Date : May 1st, 2007 Distance : 147km When I woke up in the morning the weather was, as the weather forecast had correctly predicted, quite rainy. I decided that I would try and wait it out so I started to pack up the tent and reorganize my bag. At about 8:30 the 88-temple [...]]]></description>

The peak of the road would be over 1000m over sea level which is quite a feat with a heavy bicycle. However I had expected that it would [...]]]></description>

From there, I wanted to see the city a little bit and I wound up going to the garden of the remains of Takamatsu castle which is right across the street from the station. I was [...]]]></description>

I had a little time to kill so I ride around the station area as I don&#8217;t often get the chance to make it out to the Tokyo Station area. I took the bike apart and put it [...]]]></description>

It almost feels strange being back in an office instead of on the bike. The trip as a whole was 29 days, 2980km. I managed to complete the [...]]]></description>

I am really looking forward to it, but I would be lying if I didn&#8217;t say that I wasn&#8217;t a little bit scared. It will be the longest [...]]]></description>
