My Mind Keeps Spinning Its Wheels

Hi. Since I work with imports, people tend to assume I understand all the details. Experience has made me rather particular about them. Recently I met someone interesting, and I would like to have a drink together. Listening to someone working hard at something makes you want them to succeed, whatever else is going on in life.

This is craft gin imported from Belgium.

A young person went there, found the supplier and brought it to Japan. At the time of writing, this Kanazawa connection was the only place in Japan supplying it. If you are interested, get in touch and I can point you in the right direction. I have never been to Europe myself.

The weak yen makes importing from Europe expensive too. The exchange rates I have been seeing make your head spin.

I have been discussing paintwork with the painter: the lettering, the stripes and exactly where everything should go. There are more parts involved than I first expected.

New parts have arrived from the United States.

Even with the weak yen, some things need replacing. One damaged part really stands out on an otherwise tidy bike.

We have arrangements with American suppliers including Big Bike Parts, Goldstrike and Corbin. Things have been quieter on that front lately, but please contact us if there is something you are looking for.

See you.
