My adventures of cycling Japan

a reply to: musicismagic

That would kill me trying to do that MM 10 miles on a bicycle was my limit , my friends many decades ago were doing 60 miles on a stage on hard going terrain as a 70 year old gentleman I salute you for your energy and vigour at even attempting such a feat in any heat .

I actually managed to take my dog out for a walk without returning soaking wet and since Thursday we have had 8 inches of rainfall now , I checked the bucket out in my back garden on my way in tonight


Lol I was reading your blog about the old ladies keeping through fertiliser for the rice fields , I can remember a old gentleman who did not have a inside toilet who managed to grow enormous vegetables using the same method

yes, it is very different here living in a "village". People know everyone and since I'm the only foreigner I try to stay in the shadows but most here have a warm welcome for me. As you read my blog, you'll see my life is very simple.
In August I will start another tour . I most likely will end up living under the stars for 4 or 5 months, but life is free for me .
Thanks for following me.
