Brompton Winter Snow Ride to Hot Sprin
Brompton's snow ride toward hot spring in the mountain valley. I went to famous Kita Onsen (North Hot Spring) where some of the impressive scenes in the movie "THERMÆ ROMÆ" were taken. I used a pair of stud tyres Schwalbe Winter for the ride.
The original plan was RIDE&HIKE to the mount Chausu, one of the peaks of Nasu Mountain but I was not able to the trailhead due to heavy snow on the road. Instead, I visited Kita Onsen to enjoy atmosphere of an isolated hot spring in the snow valley.
Equipments:
Brompton M6L-X w/Schwalbe Winter
Brompton Rucksack
Gopro Hero7
Asics GEL-Trabuco 12 GTX
Monbell Compact Snow Spike
Monbell Drytec Easyfit Spatz

Brompton Urban Challenge Tokyo was held on November 11, 2024. Riders started to look for and take pictures of designated "animal symbols" consisted of slopes named after an animal and animal monuments. Our strategy was, instead of riding faster than other teams, to take advantage of public transportation network in Tokyo to win. What was the result of our animal quest?
