I bought a new helmet for cycling today. An event for cyclists, which will be held on Oct. 16th, requires all the participants to wear one during the event. It is the straightforward reason for buying one, but naturally I know it's for security. However, it looks so simple and I wondered if it would work well in time of emergency. Anyway, it might be better than nothing.
This event was the cue for me to buy a bicycle last year and I'm going to attend the event this year. It's great, I think, to do something new, which I couldn't do before. Ehime Prefecture, where I live, faces Seto Inland Sea in the north. The area called this is very narrow and small from a worldwide view, but it's well-known for the awesome view. If you want to see it, google for images with the key word of "Setonaikai" or "Setouchi".
The participants choose their routes from three routes which are 60km, 80km and 100km in length and I chose the longest one, 100km. I'll record my route and post it in this blog with pictures that I'll take on the way as long as my physical strength lasts.
Thanks, Shiroi_Tora
I remember you kindly advised me to wear a helmet for the security.
