I bought a bike the other week… and put it to good use on my last day off by going on a ride to nowhere in particular round my new parts.
I headed off towards what I think is north of my house and spent about 2 or so hours biking around some decidedly weird parts, encountering amongst other things a US military base (they’re everywhere!), a sports centre, a crazy crocket ground, a motorway, an Onsen centre (Japanese hot spring baths), a Mitsubishi plant, what I think were some towns (they were lacking town centres though) as well as a cemetary and a pizza spot (that was literally in the middle of nowhere).
As night set I decided it might be a good idea to head back home before I get properly lost. 30 minutes or so later I made it back, freezing cold but pleased with myself.
It’s nice to be able to lose yourself and just go and look for whatever you might find. It might be handy to start learning the Japanese alphabets properly though so I can read the signs.
I took some pictures too… head over to the Flickr set right here
