Steel Hardtail UNAUTHORIZED RPM 45

Here is my friend's Unauthorized RPM 45. I saw this bike for the first time in almost 2 years. He doen't ride on a bike now and lends it to me.

Mt.Nebiso( last half) Jan.27

We went riding on the last part of Mt.Nebiso trails today.
We struggled with snow last weekend so we approached the last part of the trail via another pavement road at this time. But it snowed yesterday. We started on the Icy road...

Mt. Nebiso Jan.19 snow

I went to the Nebiso trails this weekend, again.

Mt. Nebiso Jan.12

I will change the blog name to "mtb Shambhala" today.
We ride on a mountain bike to explore Shambhala (Shangri-La) every weekend...
The name of Shambhala is derived from a book "Kuhaku no 5 mairu" which means blank 5 miles and the challenge to the the world largest canyon 'Tsuampo' in Tibet.

Anyway, it is sunny and -3℃, of course we are going to Nebiso trails today.

Mt. Nebiso Jan.6

Today is the first ride of the year. The destination is Mt. Nebiso.

We were worried about snow but didn't have to. With pedalling, we were getting warmer. The starting point was -4℃ and we went up to the peak of 1,100 meters elevation.
