Hello! This is Nabetaku.
Starting tomorrow, we have a three-day weekend packed with events—do you all have your plans sorted yet?
On Saturday and Sunday, I’ll be an instructor for a cycling class at Kids Lore, part of Toyorock, which Circles is also supporting! I might not be able to do any flips or jumps, but let's have a blast! Everyone, come on by and play!
Now, as Kids Lore is all about enjoying bikes to the fullest, I’m sure many of you moms and dads are wondering what kind of bikes the kids can ride. You definitely are. So, without further ado, let me introduce the kids' bikes available for you to ride that day!
・Rennrad
Born in Germany, Rennrad is the perfect bike for kids looking to step up; they can master their sense of balance in run-bike mode, and then attach the pedal set to the frame later on!
It’s attractive because one bike lasts a long time, and it features a wide lineup of tire sizes and high-quality design. At the Circles shop, we have 14-inch (green) and 16-inch (blue) models in stock.
Ride a Rennrad, and you might just learn to ride a bike in a single day!?
We have various sizes prepared, so please try them out. We have both kick-bike mode and bicycle mode types.
・HARO
For HARO, we’ve prepared the classic Shredder.
The abundant color variations and BMX-like look are so cool!
In the shop, we have the 18-inch in orange, purple, and 16-inch in green in stock. The 18-inch bikes can also be purchased via our web shop.
We're also bringing 12-inch models to Kids Lore, so even the smaller kids can ride!
・KONA
From Kona Bicycles, famous for their MTBs, we have prepared the Makena with front suspension and the Shred with disc brakes!
Both are 20-inch models. These are models we don't usually have in stock at the shop, so please take this chance to try them out!
・GIANT
From GIANT—a brand I ride myself—we have the 24-inch TCX ESPOIR 24 and the Liv ENCHANT 2! They are a bit on the larger side at 24 inches, but they are authentic cyclocross models for kids, so please give them a try!
・BERN
They aren't bikes, but we have Bern's kids' helmets available for those who will be using the test-ride bikes.
A helmet protects your head from unexpected falls; it never hurts to wear one. I make sure to wear a helmet for my own commute too.
Every one of these bike and helmet brands is something Circles can recommend with confidence.
If you try them out at Kids Lore and think, "This is fun, I want one!", please grab me at the venue, and I’ll be happy to advise you on a purchase—feel free to say hi!
Now, about the weather we’re all concerned about, there is a forecast for rain at the moment.
Based on the weather forecast to be released by the Japan Meteorological Agency today at 5:00 PM, a decision on whether to hold Kids Lore and BIKE to Toyorock will be announced by 8:00 PM.
I really hope it clears up since we’ve come this far. Let’s all blow those rain clouds away!
Alright then, see you tomorrow at Toyorock!
