The Bicycle
The bicycle is what happened when the heterocycle became a little...curious.
It also is a grand way to get around a country that relies on trains and has sprawling but compact cities. Apparently when Tokyo was rebuilt after the firebombing of World War II, it was made more expansive than its former, pre-destroyed design.
Here is a Japanese Gal just be-boppin with her trikey.
I suppose in the days before automobiles and coca-cola, people in japan put things close together in an effort to make it easier to commute. Osaka, from what I've heard, maintains this style, compact, small, easy to travel around with something like a bicycle. After all, Osaka was spared from firebombs so the old-school ways are still stickin around. God bless the people of Osaka.
A great way to travel within these cities is a bike. I think I'll perhaps pick up one of these little foldable darlings to use to get around certain areas of the cities without the aid of a bus. Who needs the bus anyways?
So I'm considering one of these.
Do ya think it would work for a 200 lb american? Oh for sure.
I reckon it would be an incredible way to get from takoyaki stand to takoyaki stand. Maybe even taiyaki stand to taiyaki stand. Yakitori stand to yakitori stand. I might even try to go from yakiniku stand to yakiniku stand with this bad mamma-jamma.
Whats another 200 bucks ya know? Its a bike...and it folds!!!!
Someone must have been reading my diary to know my greatest wish.
And wishes do come true.
This is just part of my options, we also got trains, busses and feets.
More havoc to come...
