Here is a brand new track by a Tokyo resident who is somewhat new on the scene.  He has a couple events coming up in September, including one in Shibuya on the 13th.  Stay tuned for details!

Taiyo Record are moving, but they will stay in the general Kagurazaka area. They are only moving a little way up the hill and will be one block away from Kagurazaka Street.

This run-in on the first stage of this year's Eneco Tour proves why Euskadi riders shouldn't be allowed in the first 20 riders inside the final kilometer. They should be required to pull off to the right or left and sit up.

Watch for the all-orange jersey in about 9th position from about 6:35 of the video and count how many times he almost goes down in the final km!

I haven't posted anything lately, and I've kind of been out of ideas, so I thought I'd post an old classic by Nathan Miller who has a video blog at Bicycle-Sidewalk.com.

Ooops!  I guess Großen Teich is not just any old pond, it just refers to the Atlantic, not the Pacific.  Too bad, it's staying on as part of the title.  You see, just as a little English is a dangerous thing (as proven by all the funny T-shirt messages one sees in Japan), so is a little bit of German equally dangerous!  So is a little bit of Japanese!
