Last year, four bonfires were held on weekday evenings in Tokyo.（first time・second time・Three times.・Four times.）However, at the last event last year, we agreed that it would be a cold season to clean up after dropping the fire, so we decided to start the event in the light of day this time.
One of them bought a new bike last year after getting a big one, and the other is a guy who changed from a mid-size AT to a mid-size MT last year and is wondering which bike to buy after getting a big one this year.
We agreed on a time to meet there, but for some reason I went to a certain 2Rinkan first....
In order to make the event a little more eventful and to cast a spell to make M-kun, who was having a hard time deciding on a candidate model, buy a Harley, I took the 883 to the site.
I was the first to arrive, so I waited for a bit, and then I heard the characteristic paratwin sound... I've written about this before.The Triumph THRUXTON that he tried out on New Year's Day while touring.Mr. A came in astride a
There was an accident and Mr. M was going to be late, so Mr. A went for a test ride on a Harley, and although he has been riding motorcycles for decades since he was a teenager and has played on the circuit, this was his first time riding a Harley.
I went out for a quick test ride.... I was told that I could ride the THRUXTON, but I decided not to, so I looked at the Triumphs in the meantime.I did test drive the Street Triple.But I have only seen two-cylinder cars at dealers. And this car...
FCR carburetor with stock option ARROWS muffler. The handlebars were raised a bit by the previous owner, so the position of the bike is the same as the StoFy's I've ridden before, with a light forward lean.
In the meantime, Mr. A came back and Mr. M arrived, so the party began.
By the way, it seems that Mr. A had a little bit of a bad impression of Harley (mainly because of his prejudice against unruly owners, just like me), but when he came back, his first words were "This is fun! That was it!
First Bonfire of 2019
This year's event was not only held in the daytime, but also not on a weekday. Today was Sunday. It was Sunday, and the forecast was for a high of 15 degrees Celsius, making it a beautiful day like early spring. Normally we have bonfires on empty riverbanks.....
There were dozens of people and many tents just looking around. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the warmth of the day in their own way. We started a fire as soon as we could....
We ate ahijos with vegetables and seafood (oysters and prawns) and baguettes roasted over the fire...
We tucked into the roast beef that M-kun had made at home....
As usual, we mobilized several fire pits, and talked about various topics (mainly motorcycles) while lighting firewood....
It's not as bright as usual, but it's nice to have a fire in the daytime. It's not always possible, but a bonfire in the daytime is quite nice. It's easy to clean up afterwards. Normally, there would be a lot of searching time, "Where is it? But this time there was no such thing.
local dissolution
After a quick removal in the light of day, we went to the parking lot for another motorcycle viewing contest... Before that, Mr. A went for a test ride because he was in the "I like Harley" mode and wanted to ride it again. He also liked the fact that it was similar to the SR that he had been riding.
And then, each of us straddled our own bikes... First, I took M-kun's virginity by riding on a big bike....
Mr. A, who wanted to check how it felt to be on 883, also snapped a picture.
We talked about motorcycles for a while and then broke up.

I went from there to the 2Rinkan to return the 883....
I went to my ex-family's house to see their cat....
Checking on my third son....
I also love the cats in the cat kotatsu, which is a display table that has been modified so that you can look into it from above....
I had dinner with Som Tam (green papaya salad) and Pad Thai (Thai fried noodles), which I ordered from Uber Eats....
The Sunday of Setsubun is over... I love bonfires, don't you?
As usual, I can't (won't) go touring....
