today hokido veteran he’s actually been living here over 10 years with his own house and everything you might be thinking Pizza Japan not really Japanese food uh but hey this is local pizza in fact is that good that the locals have dubbed it Pizza as soft as muchi fua fua which means really fluffy so we’re going out for some fluffy Pizza also a famous spot for motorcyclists as well it’s situated in a m noi which basically means a roadside station that’s the plan uh we’re also going to be riding past place called rankoshi in fact cutting right through it rankoshi is known for producing some of hoko’s best rice you might be thinking how are we going to be hauling it back with the with this thing over here not the most practical means of transportation is it well check this this ride is actually really special so we have my wife and also Eddie’s wife joining us today not on the bikes they’re actually coming with us in the car so it’s a bit of a a bike tour road trip special in this episode and because we’ll be cutting through the Rural Plains of hokido I’m sure we’ll be spotting some really local food stands as well to get super warm today I think we’re going to reach the 30s so yeah let’s uh let’s stay cool and ride out for some fua fua pizza anything else think just about C everything [Music] go you ready let’s go super excited today actually I is finally able to join us

rip after 2 weeks and yeah it’s uh already got my juices [Music] flowing finally again now onto some open roads this is the road that leads onto joanet actually uh very familiar with this road it’s beautiful very bumpy actually uh in the middle towards the end uh but yeah the weather’s cool it’s nice it’s not uh too hot well as long as you’re moving that is and to be faired even like it being cloudy it’s still quite muggy and warm probably going to reach about 32° at some point [Music] today but cherries so rumo yeah ched [Music] Farm [Music] good man all right ladies all [Music] right [Music] Eddie tapping his helmet going in we can’t go crazy with the women yeah it’s fine they’ve got Google Maps man it’s fine it’s an easy route anyway don’t [Music] worry actually a quite popular Dum on the left hand side over here as well it’s really beautiful during the Autumn season to see the fall leaves yeah joean is a is a popular spot for uh to visit during autumn in fact as Eddie was mentioning earlier uh this road is a hot spot there are a lot of police officers cars sneaked away uh it’s funny actually I was only on this road on Wednesday this week I had to uh participate in an English teaching event actually at uh a school in rankoshi so we’re probably going to cut through rankoshi today as well uh been told to be aware of deer and also raccoons on this road uh by the school uh quite a lot of them and there’s also signs ahead haaa really has a collection of cool uh like animal warning signs scattered about be good to have like a play a bingo game right take pictures against each one of those pretty high up aren’t we I’m not sure if they’ve gone past me oh not fair bit of traffic on this road today which is not usually the case I suppose people are just going places there is the weekend of the RO and this is one of the main roads outside of uh to get out of sapuro wag as we come down in altitude we were crossing over a mountain pass just a moment ago and now we’ve come down we’re going to go around Mount russu and then continue going straight to Kuru Kur Kur kurai that’s right oh is there anything interesting here I wonder watermelon yeah just watermelons I guess oh some tomato they picked some [Music] con so C so we came here last year and tried the sweet corn and it turned out to be marvelous so I picked up some more sweet corn what’s happening you good yeah what’s that that mushroom what is it it’s like a Jen it’s like a jinsen honey yeah yeah 4,000 Yen as well $40 that’s a lot for but that’s it’s probably some pure local organic honey right fruit yeah brown sugar this is brown sugar oh okay I’ll give give a couple do what have you got going on I got a double Banger going on my hurt over here eating corn nice warm corn yeah

and uh worked up pway it feels amazing wo all right so we just picked up some corn and watermelon I alling and now we are heading towards oh R1 2007 as well uh we heading towards Kur kuruna except I’m not really sure if it’s uh the right direction but uh I believe it is I believe it’s one straight road but I’ll need to double check that in a second uh but yeah um that place where we’ve just picked up the sweet from is uh we actually tried it last year and it was amazing this is a beautiful stretch of road this is what we would say Hokkaido fo meaning think of hokido this is the image you would get tractor blowing away open Fields mountains in the back it’s [Music] amazing smell that smells good do [Music] it uh FL what that planting flowers inside of the road look how pretty these flowers are just lot of Maintenance we have a right turn coming over ahead all [Music] right [Music] lots of like fluff floting about here oh look a Ron sign uh here in h to be uh to be wary of but yeah know what I was saying these fluffy floating things I’m not really sure what plant they come from but uh for some reason I also have an association of Hokkaido with it I don’t know where that comes from maybe a picture that I saw uh of Hokkaido somewhere uh but yeah very hokido PO he just saw a sneaky police car just a moment ago hidden away in the uh on a side L Side Road coming up dude I look like a p what’s happening so we’ve just done a little pit stop we brought some corn from the Woodside and now we’ve just pulled over at this uh Sweet Spot in fact and just uh yeah taking a little break before we get back on I just saw a cop car as well just sneakily packed in the road man these roads it can be really difficult cuz they’re completely open speed limit is something stupid like 50 km an
