    There's in this moment a football match between France and Nederlands, as in the "tour de France" when dutch cyclists fight with french cyclists . But i must say : the most beautiful cyclists are colombian : Is it because of the spirit of Ecuador or what ? In Europe we need enthusiasm of this part of the world : Sherry went to Japan to make happiest those Bambis and youtubers and followers and when you see her trip, wings grow on the back and riding the bike for long distance is easier even with Worn equipment. It is not flattery, it's more or less real and we learn english with those videos, don't need any more school : let's go to Sports Classes and of course with music and the smile of this Doe Woman. You just have to think about her and just her image in your head makes you win the race

    I've ridden everywhere in the prefectures around Tokyo. I admire your ability to deal with the traffic and cold weather (this was April or so, right?) I hate traffic and especially the tunnels around Okutama. Fortunately, I can skip the traffic by loading my bike on the train and getting to the base of the mountains where there is far less traffic and the smaller roads are still well maintained. I love getting up in the mountains. Japan is beautiful.

    Que viaje tan cool y super el video! I'd love to embark myself on a bikepacking road trip like yours. How do you manage the bike bag for boarding trains after you're out of the train? Do you use a lightweight bag that you carry in a backpack the whole trip, or do you just purchase a new one when leaving the country/taking a new train?

    Great video, you say if you come to Japan make sure you have enough gears on your bike. I see you’re using 1x which to me is a backward step. The more gears you have the better which means 2x,the leg wrecking big gaps between the the sprockets and increased chain deflection are a big minus to me

      I used a rinco bag, you have to pack your bike on it to transport in the Shinkansen, I bought mine in Japan but they are quite expensive there and sometimes tricky to find, I have some at home I bought on amazon that are cheaper I just forgot to bring them, I leave a link below: amzn.to/3Rysp0R
