Autumn has deepened, and the days when we kept saying how hot it was are gradually transitioning into a season where we can hear the approaching footsteps of winter. While the cold will become harsh, winter is precisely the season when you can most strongly feel the wonder of making good use of your bicycle.
When you ride a bike, your body warms up, and you can truly feel the energy generated by human beings; I think it is far more dynamic and wonderful than staying cooped up and living life relying on something else. I am also very happy that there are many friends around us who make such good use of their bikes even in winter.
And speaking of winter, there is a perfect stage to pour out all of that overflowing energy, isn't there?! This season has arrived again this year!
Yes. It’s Nobeyama Cyclocross!
This year it will be held over two days, Saturday, 11/29 and Sunday, 11/30.
We hope you will forgive us, but both Circles and Earlybirds breakfast will be closed on these two days as we will be participating in Nobeyama CX.
Of course, we are doing it again this year!

At the SimWorks booth, you can also try out Sport Crafters trainers!
And we here at Circles declare ourselves the Rear Derailleur Emergency Response Team!
To prepare for the rear derailleur trouble festival which is also a Nobeyama tradition (?), we will be providing a repair service by mechanics on-site during the event.
We have major RD models and chains in stock, so please use us as a refuge should you have the misfortune of running into trouble on the day.
And to the manufacturers exhibiting on the day: if you bring your main models' derailleur hangers, we will handle the replacement work for anyone in need! So, we kindly ask any manufacturers who take pride in their work to please bring spare hangers along with you!!!
Although the event is later than in previous years, it seems that some categories are already nearing their entry capacity even at this stage! We will provide updates on the tour as they become available, but if you are interested, please complete your entry first, and then contact Circles!
Let’s all go and have a great time together again this year!
