Building bikes and visiting Blue Lug! | Japan Tour Day 3

- Today was spent building bikes, visiting arguably the best bike shop in Tokyo, and briefly leaving central Tokyo to track down an essential piece of equptment for our journey.
For those interested, the camp stove in question is a Soto Amicus. We could have purchased it in New Zealand but found it was about $10 cheaper in Japan. We also researched travelling with gas stoves can be risky and there is a chance they can be confiscated by security, so decided it would be better to buy once arriving. That's the reason we tried so hard to find one!
You've done a great job of editing. The videos are polished enough to make them interesting, and simple enough to make them feel personal. I'm looking forward to watching the whole series. I think Japan is cycling nirvana. As for gas stoves, the only ones that could cause grief at the airport are the ones with integrated fuel tanks. Burner heads that screw onto a gas can, like the Soto, are fine because there is no residual fuel.
Thank you! Yes we chose the Soto because it's safe for air travel. 🙂
A friend brought me back a BL water bottle. I love it. Cheers from Chicago
Beautiful video ~ your calm demeanor makes it relaxing to watch!
Reviewing the folding bikes it is of course difficult to know which one of the bikes that I like best but will mention the roads are harsh at times in viet nam for a number of reasons I’d say 20 inch! Overall the folding bike is a good way to travel !paul
Brompton right
Loved seeing the VO Polyvalent "in the wild"! (Hint: you should let them know about it.)
Don't worry, we did!
Can you make some tutorial video for building a bike, while you guys trip 😁 very interesting 😂
Sure, maybe once I've finished editing the rest of the trip!
you should make the video longer 😀
really enjoying it 👍
do you have a link about the bike bag?
Thanks! More videos coming soon. :) They are Ground Effect Tardis bags.
Can you share where I can buy a similar bike bag?
Look up Ground Effect Tardis bags. :)
you are used to riding on the same side of the road as the Japanese your ahead of the pack
It makes cycling easier for sure!
Just now surfed in to find Coof-maskers in April 2023. Yeah, like I'll subscribe.
Masks are expected everywhere in Japan, commonplace even before covid. We respect the culture. Thanks for watching!
What's with the masks? Outdoors? Really?
Japan
Totally unnecessary - go on, take them off so you can breath!
