My Cycling Adventures 2024

MV Hakodate

Cycling the Oshima region of Hokkaido

  1. I started cycling in July 2022.
  2. I ride a SPECIALIZED HARDROCK mountain bike which I absolutely love.
  3. I aim to discover historical places and local heritage.
  4. I particularly enjoy riding new routes and gravel roads within the surrounding mountains, though must be careful of the bears.
  5. The emphasis is on increased health and mental well-being, not power and speed.
