Brendan from Australia joined our team!!
He has carbon frame bike(very light!!) and carbon shoes!!
and he is very FAST!!

We chose Hitachi trail for Carbon's debut!!
because this trail is one of my favorite course!!

I did not know Brendan's riding skill,
So,I asked him if he wants to go for a long course or the fun course.
and he replyed "I always take the long course!!" with smole on his face!!

He was right!! He was very fast
It seems to me the long course was not enough for him

Hey, we got to be better and faster!!

This is Carbon!!
with his carbon frame bike and carbon SPD shoes!

This course starts with Japan's infamous carrying!!
