September 16th: Nagoya to Toyohashi

Thanks to fickle, soggy weather, today i'm spending the night in Toyohashi, which is about 45km from where i had intended to arrive at (Hamamatsu). Not the best of restarts to my cycling journey but it feels great to be back cycling.

I might be behind schedule to arrive in Tokyo (was expecting to arrive in 3-4 days), but thankfully the silver lining is that if i delay my arrival till about Friday, i can be in Tokyo in time for the Tokyo Game Show 2007 (Sept 22-23)!

This is a once in a lifetime chance to catch arguably the biggest game show on Earth without really seriously hindering any of my plans and i'm not going to waste it. So barring a natural disaster, i will be taking it slow for the next 5 days to reach Tokyo on Friday and spend 3 nights there to catch TGS 2007.
