]]> Join my friends and I as we ride around lake Biwa (Japan’s biggest lake) in Shiga prefecture, Japan. The total trip is about 150 km, which is mostly flat with a couple hills, but has an abundance of breathtaking scenic riding spots along the coast.

You can see a lot of these scenic locations throughout today’s vlog.

About a month before this ride, Thuong (we were not dating yet) decided that she wanted to challenge herself by riding around lake Biwa. Although she had never ridden a road bike before in her life (or any bike other than a standard cheap bike for that matter), she started training for this goal. Her first ride was about 45km, her second ride was 80km, her third ride was 100km, and today was her 4th ride at 150km.

According to her, each ride was easier than the last since she was able to adapt to the bike and become more comfortable. Even crazier, she was riding in regular shoes with flat pedals and never stood up once during the whole ride.

Anyway, huge props to her for accomplishing her goal!
