The Bicycle Diaries.

I know.
I was stupid.
It's been only 7 days since I went hiking and got severe sore muscles.
But I did it. My muscles are sore again.
I took a day-trip by bicycle! The biking is booming in Japan now.
My husband,regular customers..everybody around me started riding a bike.
I didn't care first.But I'm getting envy.
I feel like biking,too. You know,feel like trying something you thought you never be able to do.

But I don't think I can handle those cool, Lance Armstrong type of bike like my husband's.

-His bike-

Then I went with my old bicycle.
It's been long since the last time I rode bicycle then I was struggling fiirst hour. The streets are not for bicycles. Those are very narrow.And the car drivers were not gentle to me.

I found many things while I was cycling which I couldn't see if I drove a car.
Thanks for the slow trip,I could take some photos of my favorite scenes.

I was off to Utsunomiya-city where I went to almost every off-day. It's about 60km distance from my house.
But I couldn't make it. I was picked up with my bicycle by my husband.
It was about 10km to the goal.
damm.. Let's do that again.

My shadow reflect on the clean water river.
