[168] My Beloved Car... - 2006/11/04 (Sat)

When I eat at Akafuku, it brings back memories of the strange old days...
Speaking of, I used to go all over the place on my bike.

Back then, we got together a team of bike-loving friends,
and oh man, every every week, my day off was concentrated on touring.
At the beginning, we went to see things like the beach at the end of the season (always good),
and we drove up famous moutains, and we went sight seeing,
but as the number of times heaped up, gradually we ran out of nearby places to go.
We didn't have enough for gas back then, so we couldn't use the freeway.

And so we'd gotten to the bottom of the well of places we could go,
and so instead, a new battle cry was born: let's go somewhere to eat!

At Akafuku, too, the group was eventually reduced to one, but it seemed like, for example,
'I want to eat some tasty udon.'
'I'm going to Sanki for some udon.'
'I'm going to eat some Sanki udon right now.'
Of course, I was cutting it close on a day trip to Kagawa... (^_^)

The team in those days taught me, and these days, it's almost raining bikes.
The hobby grew on me, and I managed a bike store with my friend.
If the day comes that I get to ride again, I'll definitely do a touring diary...
