And....I have another "totally out-of-shape" guy in the team..
Hase...He was fast before he went to New York....
BUT when he returned.....he lost all the muscle and no shape at all...
(He retired the 100km race at the first check point...)
and he hit a rock by ankel when he was snowboarding...

What do we do when we are out of shape??
Of couerse!! mountainbiking!!

It was a warm sunny day...
Hase and I went to Hitachi for sakura(cherry blossoms) ride again!!
becasuse it was so good the week before...
BUT the cherry blossoms are still in full bloom in hitachi!!

Hase and I eonjoyed the trail and we had a great time....
BUT....We were so out of shape and I could only do one loop....
Hase was wasted after one loop.

So we finished riding and went to have ra-men for lunch....
Oh no...my BMI will increase.....
