The days are getting warmer and the mountains are becoming greener, aren't they?
Even though this winter was a warm one, there’s something about the arrival of spring that just puts you in a good mood.

I imagine many of you are starting a new life or experiencing a change in environment this spring.
Before I knew it, I’ve been at Circles for three years now.
Before I joined the company, I decided to try riding my bike from the farthest place I’d ever lived back to my hometown, so I went on a tour from Tokyo to Kochi.
I got bored of riding along National Route 1, so I changed my course to head north through Nagano and Nagoya, making my way across Honshu to Hiroshima Prefecture.
It took about 10 days to get home, and that tour felt amazing.
You ride along with other tourers headed in the same direction, and when you reach your destination, you toast to your success!
As you ride, the scenery changes, and even the local dialects you hear along the way start to shift.
It was such a fun way to spend time, really getting to see so many different places.

I think changes in life often provide the perfect timing to go on a long-distance tour.
In Japan, that time is usually around March, isn't it?
So, you’ve suddenly decided you want to go on a tour—but what do you need?
First things first: you need a rack! And that brings us to our latest campaign!

A front rack, a rear rack, or maybe even a bag supporter!?
For touring, or even just for your everyday life.
GOOD RACK TOURING Campaign
Purchase over ¥15,000 (excluding tax) including eligible items and get a 2-pack of RAL Pack It Right straps in Green as a gift!
Campaign Period: Until the end of March
No matter how you use them, if you purchase over ¥15,000 (excluding tax) including eligible rack-related items, you will receive two RAL / Pack It Right straps in GREEN as a gift!!
There are so many ways to use them, whether it’s for bundling luggage or keeping things secure so they don’t bounce around.
Install these bright green straps, reminiscent of fresh spring leaves, along with your new rack, pack a lunch for some cherry blossom viewing, or strap on plenty of gear for a long tour.
With that said, let me introduce a few racks for you.

SIMWORKS BY NITTO
Obento Rack
Featuring a compact table that’s just the right size for a six-pack.
Despite its simple appearance, it comes with extra-long 420mm connection rods and clamps to ensure it fits any front fork.
If you mount a WALD 137 basket on it, it becomes much easier to carry larger, loose items!!

SURLY
Nice Rack Rear
This rear rack is height-adjustable, fits a wide range of wheel sizes, and keeps your center of gravity low for a stable ride.
It’s a rack that can carry everything you need for a good time, whether it’s a travel guitar, a large bow, a medium pizza, a tent, or a camping chair!

PASS AND STOW
5 Rail Rack
The Pass And Stow Rack, handmade one by one by Matthew Feeney in Oakland, California, has just been restocked at the perfect time.
With a lightweight design, a wide deck, the ability to hang panniers on both sides, a light mount, and a beautiful finish, this rack fulfills all your requirements.
There are so many more things we could suggest.
At Circles, we’re happy to help with any questions, from daily commuting to touring, so please come visit us!!
Is this campaign only for the physical store?
No, it’s also available through our WEB SHOP, so please be sure to take advantage of it!!
