West Tokyo and Saitama
After Sendai, I got back to Tokyo and headed to West Tokyo or Nishi Tokyo area. I wanted to see some of the Tuning shops before going to Saitama to hang with Yamashima, Taguchi and Suenaga-san.
I got off at Kamishakujii Station and rented a bike. The bike was 100 Yen ($1) for 4 hours! It started raining, but it didn’t stop me.
It was a long bike ride as I went 4 miles one way, then back and another few miles to reach Spoon Sports and Type One. But the bike ride was fun and great.
I then jumped on the train and eventually reached where Suenaga-san lived.
I’ve covered it on the main site, but this is more about the people.
Suenaga-san picked me up. The Hiruma-san stopped by. Then Taguchi-san came and then Yamashima-san. We hung out for a few hours and talked shop and culture stuff.
