Another day on the bike
The La Niña phenomenon has brought a cold wave. The highest temperature has been around 10 degrees Celsius, but I still travel to work on weekdays by motorcycle.
By the way, this week, I met up with a green lover who often comments on this blog on weekdays and we talked about work.
I noticed that my Ninja 650 was a bit dirty, unlike the well-kept Ninja 400 of the green lover.
So, I've been wandering around Tokyo on the Metropolitan Expressway since this morning.
The odometer is growing steadily even though I haven't been touring.
Dinner is Jiro-inspired.
After a sudden increase in meetings at the end of the year, this is what I had for dinner this evening.
Small pig garlic carame (spell)
No. 4 in the Eat Log Kanagawa Ramen Ranking (as of today)
It seems to be a famous Jiro-inspired restaurant. Pork Star in Motosumiyoshi.
入り口はA system without a sign.By the way, it takes less than 10 minutes to get here by bike from my house. By the way, it takes less than 10 minutes to get here by bike from my house.
I've eaten Jiro a few times, including the Inspire, but I never thought "this is good" while eating it, I thought "this is pig food, ....". That's my honest impression. But ....... I don't know why, but I suddenly get the urge to eat it about once every six months.
Ruff & Road Kawasaki
So, I was completely full and on my way home...... But there was no space to park my bike at Pork Star, so I parked here.
The closest bike store to my house. Ruff & Road Kawasaki Store.
You can get there on foot, or in a short distance by bike or motorcycle, but the parking space is small and I don't use Tsunashima Kaido very often, so I rarely stop by.
It's a 3 minute walk from here to Pork Star. It's a 3 minute walk from here to Pork Star....... However, it would be wrong to let me use it as a parking lot, so I went inside after dinner.
I took one and went straight to the third floor.
Looking for winter gloves.
I've been thinking about getting some new winter riding shoes.I bought a pair of safety shoes from Amazon for 3,000 yen.So I was thinking of using the money for shoes to buy gloves.
I'm currently using Goldwin GORE-TEX Riding Warm Gloves, which I bought at a wagon sale in the winter of 2015 for about 5,000 yen.
I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but it's a good idea......
I've been using it for a couple of years now, but it seems to have lost its fluffy feel when I first bought it. (The palm side is warmed by the grip heater. (The palm side of the hand is warmed by the grip heater.)
I have a habit of running with two fingers on the clutch and brake all the time while driving, which makes my fingertips especially cold.
I thought about installing Heatech's electric heating gloves, but they seem to be pretty useless when you think about connecting them to your clothing...... It's only a few times a year that my fingertips get so cold that I need electric heating, as long as I don't wear gloves in the first place...... Only on the highway at night: ..... For those times... Heatech is expensive for what it is......
So I was looking around to buy another Goldwyn one, and I found a good one.
This goatskin glove is designed to be used in a heated car, with the palm side designed for easy operation and the back side designed for warmth.
I tried it on, and it seems to have a very strong thermal protection on the back side. And when I tried it on, I found that the palm side was thin, so it seemed to be easy to operate.
The sale will probably continue this weekend, so I decided to think about it and went home today.
It's the end of the year......
And when I came out of the store, I saw this guy at the intersection.
It's Christmas and the end of the year!.....
