FROM PELOSA BEACH TO OROSEI
It’s four degrees, and the heat coming from my Ducati Diavel V4 engine can barely change the fact that I’m freezing. We are 200km from Hamamatsu, the birthplace of Yamaha and Suzuki, and I can hardly wait for the ordeal to end. On my right, the colossal Mount Fuji peaks in between the clouds. Fully covered in snow, it is a mighty sight to be seen (and quite rare, too, as the local folks tell me later). Still, all I can think about are the never-ending bends of route SP95 towards Alavari. That, and a warm cup of green tea!
