Ep.163 Gokibiru: A Hokkaido Hidden Gem

<p>Gokibiru is a beautiful destination for a bike ride. If you're looking for a day's ride less than 100km from Sapporo, Gokibiru could be just the place for you.</p><p>Gokibiru is a very small fishing port tucked away between the Atsuta and Hamamasu districts of Ishikari, just off the Ororon Line. The scenery is dominated by the gorgeous mountains and cliffs that surround what was once a completely isolated fishing village.</p><p>There are a few ways to get there, but eventually all roads lead to the sparsely populated Route 231. The riding is beautiful, the destination is worth the trip, and you never know what you might see along the way. You might even get lucky and spot a praying mantis!</p><p>Happy riding out there, folks!</p><p><br></p><p>Buy Me a Coffee:</p><p>www.buymeacoffee.com/cyclinghokkaido</p><p><br></p><p>Cycling Hokkaido Podcast Instagram page:</p><p>www.instagram.com/cycling.hokkaido.podcast/</p><p><br></p><p>HESS Village English School Instagram page:</p><p>www.instagram.com/hess_village/</p><p><br></p><p>Get your 10% discount off the POW BAR at:</p><p>https://thepowbar.com/discount/CyclingHokkaido?redirect=%2Fcollections%2Fenergy-bar</p><p><br></p>
