Well done for being a bit more chatty. The locals by and large are a very friendly bunch.However,I try to keep away from the self-entitled lot as much as possible.View attachment 17597
Got in a couple of reasonable rides this week. Fairly warm out today so I just wore my summer kit with a windbreaker and gloves (two pairs of socks tho). Saw a guy sitting in the trees with a rifle on the way out of Moroyama. Couldn't help asking what he was up to. He said they're culling inoshishi and deer at this time of year. First time to see that here. Friendly guy, too. It's been a bit of a mission of mine the last few months to chat more to people I meet out and about (what with being a moody and disaffected long term gaijin and all). I've had a few duds but it went alright today
Have a top week lads!
If you did sell, you'd be down to your last 10 bikes. Best keep it to be on the safe sideI did the thing you shouldn't do....
I rode a bike I have been planning on selling.
Why am I selling? Well, this bike climbs ok, is meh on the flats, but shines like a <insert favorite back word here> on the downhills.
locally there is no downhill without a climb, so my Hightower has taken over. It climbs well, does flats well, and descends well.
It is a very capable and fun bike and for that reason it pushed the Tracer aside.
But last night I asked my 4 year old to pick which bike dad would ride. She picked this one...
The first climb was not as bad as I remember....
The second climb, I had adjusted a bit.
Hit the first legit downhill.... I gapped my group in seconds - and it was easy.
sigh...
I don't need to sell it....

I feel almost the opposite. I hit a couple spider webs and had to deal with gnats and other random bugs.Just packed the last of my winter kit in the storage cupboard! Good times lie ahead
