Hello everyone,
I just wanted to drop a note and let your know that I'm happy to be part of TCC again.
I used to be member (pedalist) of TCC, was away for some years and now I'm back in Japan. I'm living in Yokohama's south and used to ride around Miura, Kamakura, Yabitsu, Hakone (road) with @bloaker and the Yokosuka crew.
Now I'm trying to get back into cycling. The last two years I finished with a three digit number only (excluding commuting).
Btw, when I opened my garage after seven years I found that the salty air put an end to my commuter. Actually I planned to send my old MTB form Germany, but DHL wouldn't take a bike box and UPS and co. would charge way too much.
So now I'm looking for a bike to run errands, shopping, go to work etc. big enough for me (188cm, long legs). I don't need anything fancy (for now), just something to start with (need fenders and a rack).
I'm looking at Yahoo, but didn't find anything yet.
Is there any secondhand bicycle shop in the Yokohama area?
Otherwise I might have to order form Chainreaction or the like. Do you have any suggestions for places to buy bikes online? It seems like German online bicycle shops don't ship to Japan.
Thank you and I hope to see you around sometime.
