Kyoto: Day 2

Continuing on from where we left off last time, we left Osaka and headed for our hostel in Kyoto where we just rested for the night.


The next day we rented some bikes and headed to the shopping area around Kyoto, this was my single speed for the day and those bullhorn handlebars are on the wrong way too. But it was pretty fun to ride, the girls all got the standard issue bikes you see everywhere around Japan. It started off with us trying to find something to eat as we cycled our way from the hostel to the shopping district.

Suzuka Circuit: Turn 1

Another panoramic shot from Suzuka, after spending about an hour at the main straight we moved over to the first corner and this is where the good photos came out.
You'll see what I mean once I post up the photos from that day, I've just been putting it off while my mind is thinking of ways to put what I experienced that day into words.

My new toy

The latest addition to my camera gear, the Canon Powershot G11. This was a shared purchase between my girlfriend and myself since she was in need of a new camera after her one went for a swim accidentally and I just wanted something new to play with.

Suzuka Circuit Main Straight

I just whipped this up and couldn't wait to share it with you guys. This was where we first sat for the beginning of the Super GT race, we were hoping for a off the line start but it was a straight start right after the formation lap similar to go kart racing.
