I didn't have much money because I began just to work but I bought it just after I came back from Australia where I'd tried bike touring first in 1998.
The purpose of it was to encourage me to travel worldwide without fail some time.
However, it had been left with dust fully for five years in my room.

I didn't have no idea that it's better to use chromium-molybdenum frame for touring.
I was gloating because I bought a Cannondale bike.
Now I'm praying that it won't be broken every day.

My Old Racks

I ordered for Kobo-Akamatsu to make my racks. And he finished it in a month that usually takes three months. Thanks!!!
These racks are pretty heavy-duty design, but doesn't fit to another bike... X-(
