2023年8月8日 火曜日の朝は雨です。久しぶりのお湿りは台風の影響もあるのかもしれません。6号は沖縄で停滞して今後北上して九州に接近の様子。お盆の帰省に大きく影響しそうですね。一方台風7号が関東に向かっており自身のUターンに影響しないよう祈ります。
昨日は最高気温が26度とこの地域らしい気温で連日続いた猛暑の中休みとなりました。暑さも休み休みなら何とかかもですね。。
さて、宮ケ瀬ダムのツーリングの続きです。③となります。余談ですがYouTubeで検索してみると結構、宮ケ瀬ダムのツーリングが品揃え豊富です。確かに現地でバイクが多くみられツーリングの聖地的な存在であることもうなずけます。
景色が良くワインディングロードが続き、そこそこ休憩所や店もあります。そんな素敵な場所に導かれるようにして?突如原付でリターンライダーとしてこられたのは偶然ではないのかもしれません。
昨晩はYouTubeでリターンライダーとして69歳で大型免許をとり900ccのバイクに2年乗り、現在は72歳で400ccに乗り換えたというYouTuberの動画を何本か見ていたのですが、とても刺激を受けました。
バイクの魅力もしかり、年を重ねた様々な経験から来る人間味あふれる語り口も印象的で引き込まれます。
EV化が車でもバイクでも進みつつありますが、バイクは何といってもエンジンのフィーリングが要だと感じます。電動化が完遂するまでにいろいろなマシンを楽しみたいとも思います。
宮ケ瀬ダムのツーリングは先回の動画にもありますように早戸川国際マス釣場への細い道へと。。
行きかう車やバイクはあまりなく、途中都内のナンバーの車が山に入るためか駐車してありました。1台だけではなく何台か見かけました。
とても暑い日だったのですが、渓流の流れが清涼感を醸します。
到着した早戸川国際マス釣場は入場料がかかりますが、整備された気持ちの良い景観です。
家族連れでBBQなども楽しめ、都会で疲れた会社員の癒しの休日にはもってこいのランドスケープ。
都内からでもアクセスよく人気のスポットかと思います。
釣りをして大自然の中で昼食を食べて、飲める人はビールでも飲んだらさぞかし気持ちの良いことでしょう。
そんな癒しの空間を後にツーリングは続きます。

Touring to Miyagase③
August 8, 2023 It is raining Tuesday morning. The first moisture in a while may be due to the typhoon No. 6, which has stalled in Okinawa and is expected to move northward and approach Kyushu in the near future. Typhoon No. 6 has stalled in Okinawa and will move northward, approaching Kyushu, which will have a significant impact on the Obon vacation. On the other hand, typhoon No. 7 is headed for the Kanto region, and we pray that it will not affect our own U-turns.
Yesterday, the high temperature was 26 degrees Celsius, which is typical for this area, and it was a break from the heat wave that has continued day after day. I guess it is possible to take a break from the heat.
Now, let’s continue with the touring of Miyakase Dam. This is the third part. As a side note, if you search on YouTube, you will find a wide assortment of Miyakase Dam touring videos. It is true that there are many motorcycles in the area, so it is no wonder that it is a sacred place for touring.
The winding road continues with good scenery, and there are rest stops and stores there. So, how did you end up in such a beautiful place? Perhaps it is not a coincidence that I suddenly found myself here as a return rider on a moped.
Last night I was watching some videos on YouTube of a YouTuber who, as a return rider, took a large license at age 69, rode a 900cc motorcycle for two years, and now, at age 72, has switched to a 400cc, and I was very inspired.
The appeal of motorcycles is one thing, but the humanistic narrative that comes from various experiences over the years is also impressive and draws you in.
The shift to electric vehicles is progressing in both cars and motorcycles, but I feel that the key to a motorcycle is the feeling of the engine. I would like to enjoy a variety of machines before the shift to electric vehicles is completed.
After touring Miyakase Dam, we headed for the narrow road to Hayatogawa International Trout Fishing Ground, as shown in the previous video.
There were not many cars and motorcycles passing by, but I saw not one but several cars with Tokyo license plates parked along the way.
It was a very hot day, but the stream made me feel cool and refreshing.
The Hayatogawa International Trout Fishing Area, which requires an entrance fee, is well maintained and has a pleasant landscape.
Families can enjoy BBQ, etc., and the landscape is perfect for a relaxing holiday for tired office workers in the city.
I think it is a popular spot with easy access even from Tokyo.
Fishing, eating lunch in the great outdoors, and drinking beer if you can drink will surely be a pleasant experience.
The touring will continue after leaving such a healing space.
