Kobe Cruisin'

Station to Station.
A few shots from a cruise across a swelteringly hot Kobe yesterday afternoon...

The aim of this punishing ride was to visit the Re:Products Project, the retail side of the Vivalo brand. A stack of photos will be posted here just as soon as the heatstroke subsides.

Hit The City

Loaded up on the train...
We spent Monday afternoon riding around a beautifully sunny Osaka. Starting out in the south side of the city we dropped into the gorgeous Shitenno-ji to play tourist and get some sakura shots...






A couple of shadow shots in the bike parking area...

And then through the backstreets heading north towards Umeda...
