A common language that transcends all borders.
-How about wearing "Palermo Vintage"?
I like sneakers with a pop of color, so I thought it was perfect for me. The colors are exquisite. Also, the sole looks like it would be good for pedaling, so it would be good for bike riding.
-Is this a pisto bike?
Yes . I have a free gear so that it is comfortable and easy to ride around town. I rode one of the coolest bicycles I own (laughs).
-How many bicycles do you have?
I have 5 bikes. . I have a mountain bike, a road bike, and a folding bike. I customized the folding bike to my own style, and it is no longer foldable (laughs).
-What do you consider to be your unique customization?
The most obvious thing is the coloring. I have made my bike customizable so that anyone who sees it can identify it as my bike. . Just like with sneakers, I choose colors that make the parts pop.
-If you were to go cycling with your friends, what kind of places would you like to go?
I like to go to the river and just have a bonfire . Just doing what I do in my daily life around a fire. I buy food and drinks at a convenience store, eat, drink, and talk, and then just come home. It's fun to spend a loose day.
-Bicycles can be enjoyed in a wide range of ways other than just getting around.
Yes, I do. . I have made more friends since I started riding my bicycle. Even though we have different hobbies and occupations, bicycles become a common language and a conversation starter. Each store has its own personality, and I feel that when we work together at the same bicycle shop, we feel sympathy and get to know each other better. Each bicycle shop has its own community, so you can expand your connections with people.
-Have you ever taken up a new hobby because of bicycles?
I became friends with a bicyclist who liked muscle training, fell in love with fashion , and started working with the "Awashima Muscle I also started muscle training with the Awashima Muscle Club. I can say that bicycles have changed my life, and they have had a positive influence on me.
