#TAKA's Solo Travel

#TAkA's Solo Trip on the Noto Peninsula
To be honest, my summer vacation plans weren't set until five days ago.
I just had a rough idea that I wanted to go on a trip somewhere.
Two years ago, I took a whirlwind summer trip where I rode my bike from Nagoya to Mt. Fuji and climbed to the summit.
I briefly considered doing something like that again, but my passion for camping had been ignited by the recent RIDEALIVE, so I decided to go on a relaxing camping trip this time instead.

If I'm going anywhere, I want to go somewhere I've never been before.
I want to ride along the coastline.
While thinking about things like that, I decided to go to the Noto Peninsula, which I had been curious about for a while.
The clear sky and the vivid cobalt blue of the Sea of Japan welcomed me.
The sea breeze was pleasant in the mornings and evenings; I slept in a tent on the first day and a hammock on the second.
I was blessed with three consecutive days of beautiful weather, making for perfect conditions for a camp ride.
Please take a look at #TAKA's Solo Trip for more photos and such.
Also, if you'd like to hear some behind-the-scenes stories from the trip, feel free to stop by the 2nd floor of Circles.

 

I'd like to introduce a few items that I was glad I brought on this solo trip!
[KingCage] Oliver Cage Flask Set
I think this is one of those items you just can't do without on a trip.
Camping and whiskey.
Having a flask filled with whiskey has been a dream of mine since I was a child.
It heals the fatigue of the day, and on this trip, I found myself sipping from it while gazing at the starry sky.
I suspect Ron from KingCage must have done the same thing.
After all, he went as far as hand-making a cage that perfectly secures a Stanley flask.
This item was so unique that I just had to try it out—what do you all think?

We also have the highly acclaimed KingCage Bottle Cages back in stock, so please be sure to check those out as well.
