I sold my bike

I sold bike.
I suffered weather I should sold it or not for about 2 years. Because I afraid to clash or invert. I knew that my reflex was decreased.
I rode bike from I was 19 years old to 29 years old. And I did again from 39 years old to 49 years old. Total years when I'd rode bike was about 20 years.
I went many places such as Hokkaido, Aich pref., Shinsyu area, Kyushu area and Shikoku area, etc. Bike gave me many memories.
But, I'd finished it today. I'll never rode it until I will be die.

Charge battery

Bike's battery will be empty, if the bike don't be driven for a long while. So, I often ride bike around my office.
I drove it for about 30 minutes. So, it must be full charged.

In the rain

When the ferry reached to Imabari, it was rain. Raining is worst happening for bike. So, I couldn't enjoyed during I rode bike.
After we watched the beach in Baishinji, we left bikes beside the station near the beach. And we went to Matsuyama by train. Transportation by train in the rain was very comfortable.

Through Islands

I went to Matsuyama by bike through Tobi-shima islands with my friend. The first ship start from Okamura island at 6:40. So, we started about 4:00 AM from Yano.
As it was dark especially in islands, Riding bike was that I felt dangerous. But, the beside sea in the morning was very nice.

Mt. Kannon

After I downed from Mt. Kannon, I through the big bridge and landed on Island Omishima. I had a rest there for a while. I photoed myself with the big bridge and Mt. Kannon.
After I bought a gift for my family, I went back to my home.

Orange

As the islands were the place which planted many oranges, many orange's shop which no seller was there. I could buy a many oranges by paying only a hundred coin. It was a nice buying. It was one of pleasure of the touring and climbing event.

Okamura island

After I climbed down from Mt. Nanakunimi-yama, I rode bike and went to Island Okamura. It was a last island which I could go by bike through many bridges. The island was in pref. Ehime. I crossed the boarder line on the bridge. It was a exciting event.
The local island's landscape and life style always give me a moving. So, I like to go island.
By the way, building on the photograph was port's one. The ferry which start from the port went to City Imabari which was there in Shikoku big island in Japan. The payment was very cheep. So, I'll use it when I'll go to Shikoku island someday.

Forest road by bike

I went to forest road at north side in Hiroshima pref. by bike. It was there near the borderline between Hiroshima pref. and Shimane pref.

The road was very rough and many rocks and stones were there on surface of the road. It was to hard for my performance. So, it was not so interesting. Terrible was bigger then interst.

But, the nature in deep forest was very nice. During rest time, my friend and I were stayed beside stream.

A trouble had happened at the riding for my friend. Number plate of his bike was hidden when we went out from the forest road. He returned to forest road and searched it for a long while. But, he couldn't. As he didn't returned from the forest, I worried him to dropped in valley beside the road. So, I went back to forest road, too. And I searched him. Later, I found him comfortably.

We returned to Hiroshima city through narrow local road in order to not to be found by policeman.

Stream in forest

Beside the stream in the forest, it was very cool. So, we stayed there for a long while.
Everything was interesting there, such as eating cup noodle, drinking coffee and walking in stream by naked foots, etc.
Every stress which was born in job was deleted in the forest. I want to go there again in this summer.

Off road bike

I went to forest road by bike with my friend. It was a event which we do every summer. Riding forest road by bike had some risk. So, we shouldn't go alone. So, we always go together.
As it was deep summer, It was very hard job to ride bike in the city. I hoped that it would be cool in forest.

Maintain Bike

I went to bike shop on Saturday. My bike's brake pad was abraded away.
The brake disc of my previous bike CRM80 had abraded, because I did not change the brake pad enough. So, the bike couldn't stop smoothly.
I don't want to take the same mistake. So, I decided change the brake pad continuously.

Short cut by ship

When we were returning, we used ferry between Iguch in Ohmishima island and Tadanoumi in mainland.
Distance between Tadanoumi and my home was very near. It was out of my imagine. So, I didn't be tired.
It was a very nice event. I want to go to Shikoku island through these bridges from Iguchi with them in spring.

Bridge

This is a bridge which constructed between Hiroshima pref. and Ehime pref. I could through this bridge by only I paid 100 yen.
As my bike size was under 125cc, I through the area which was for walker and bicycler. My friend's bike was over 125cc, they paid 600 yen for the bridge.
I realized that my bike was very good for economy.

Touring with friends

I ran Shimanami sea road by bike with my friends yesterday.
I often go to mountain road. But, touring only on the asphalt road was first time after I married.
It was very interesting. During driving bike, we couldn't talk each other. But, it was very interesting when we ran together.
When I was university student, I did such touring with friends. I remembered the days.

Mountain road

I went to mountain road with my friend yesterday. It was first challenge by new bike.
As the diameter of the tire was larger than the old one's, It was easy to over the rock.
After we ate lunch beside the stream, it started to hard rain. But, I could enjoyed it. Much of stress in my heart was deleted.

Good brake

I rode new bike in the rain in this morning. The brake worked very well. As the brake disc of CRM80 was injured, it wasn't work well, especially in rain.
Good brake make nice riding. I realized it today.

Welcome new bike

This is new bike KLX125 which was made by Kawasaki. This is very cool. As the volume of engine is larger than CRM80, it is powerful. As this is 4 cycle engine, fuel consumption is more little than CRM80. Almost every spec is better.
But, there is no identity for it. This is very normal and easy to control. This is very useful, but may be not interesting.

Good-bye my old bike

I abandoned CRM80 today. Clerk of bike shop brought this bike by track.
I rode this bike about 8 years. I rode about 50,000 km.
As this was 2 cycle engine, the fuel consumption was hard. And It often stopped engine when it was rainy day.
I was clashed by taxi when I rode on this bike. I often went to forest road. It was a nice bike.
When I watched this bike went away on the track, I felt lonely.

Used bike

I'm looking for good used bike from the end of April. But, I couldn't find it now, because the limit of budget. I want KLX125 which is made by Kawasaki now.

Walk long distance

I commute by train in these days, because my bike had been broken. I often walk from my office to Hiroshima station in stead of city train. I can walk the distance in about 45 minutes.
Walking have some merits, such as cost, health and nice feeling.
The life without bike is not so bad.
