First of all, to all the participants, staff, volunteers, and everyone involved.
"Thank you for all your hard work, and thank you."
What kind of photos could I take, and what kind of words could I write, to fully convey what happened during that time?
Even if I only shared the impressions that remain as vivid as flashbacks—from the test rides over these past few months up to the day itself—it would undoubtedly turn into a long post.
Besides, as I mentioned before, I don't even know how to begin to express it.
As a Circles staff member, I have been involved in numerous events as an organizer, staff member, and participant.
And during this event, one customer said to me:
"This is the culmination of Circles."
Perhaps it is, but that didn't sit quite right with me.
At the time, I could only think of this as the beginning of something else.
I have no idea if what's beginning is a "highway to hell" or a "stairway to heaven," but I feel as though I’ve already started walking down that path.
If that’s the case, then I’ll keep walking.
Even a "highway to hell" will become a happy road if you walk it with a smile.
I hope to share these memories little by little as the moments arise.
For now, this post serves as a thank you.
With the words of Chris King engraved in my heart.
And, my greatest gratitude to these two people.
Thank you very much.
