It finally stopped raining so for the last two days I have been cycling for two days. I’m in Japan so I’m back to my old haunt, the Arakawa River where I use to race anyone who would, to Tokyo Bay and then to Kansai park. I’m rusty and out of shape. For weeks it has been raining and then to make things worse I don’t have my road bike built up. That’s one of my goals besides publicizing my and finishing two more articles about coffee in Japan is to build my road bike.
A friend with a lot of bikes, said he would sell me some parts. So, I start over. It was devastating losing my road bike, but I’ll never make the same mistake again. I just let my guard down by not sticking to my rules and well when you do that you soon find out why you were right the first time.
