We always hope our life will go well, but sometimes it doesn't. It is my hope that, at the moment that I die, I will be able to think that,"You know, my life really wasn't so bad at all". Bike is a good tool for improving the quality of my life.

"Koke-chai-mashita" in Tour de Saiki
Yesterday, I took part in a cycle event named "Tour de Saiki". I had entered the B-course that was about 103km bike ride. But, an accident happened on me at the point of 30km away from the start.
I fell down from my bike after losing balance by touching a small step. I felt pain on my right and left shoulder, but continued the ride. Finally, I gave up the complete course and reached the goal after 47km ride after the accident.
Today, I saw a doctor and the X-ray did not show a fracture. But, I have still had pain in my right hand and left shoulder.
Although I was injured in this event, I enjoyed the great marine view and "sushi" that is one of the town's good dishes. I will take part in the next year's event and would like to achieve 103km course at that time.
"Koke-chai-mashita" is a famous phase of a marathon runner named "Hiromi Taniguchi" in the Olympic Game in Barcelona in 1992.
P.S. October 19, I saw a doctor again. He diagnosed fraction in my left shoulder after he examined a picture took by MRI(magnetic resonance image) system. Now, I cannot bring a heavy thing by my left hand and I have to be in a calm life for a while.
