Title: Happy Bike Meeting 2015, Tokyo, Japan
Post by: Mikku on May 21, 2015, 01:06 PM: So last Sunday I made my annual trip to the biggest and best old school event in Tokyo, if not Japan, namely the Happy Bike Meeting in Komazawa Olympic Park. :bow:

In descending order of detail, here are a few of the many, many photos I took. Hope you like 'em! :daumenhoch:

I'd never been a big fan of Moosegooses but that black one was so nice it's kind of changed my mind!! Plus the owner seemed quite chuffed when I asked if I could take photos of his bike, so we were both happy! :daumenhoch:

No, I didn't see the Bonz Bros guys there but I'm glad you mentioned them because I love going to their shop, which is by a riverside path that I sometimes ride along. I guess the bulk of their business is online but they've got some nice stuff hanging up on the walls and ceiling, and are always happy to have a chat. How do you know them?

Post by: snoopy72 on May 25, 2015, 04:21 PM: I got talking to Nari, he made a 24 or 26" mongoose frame and at one point had a very large collection of mint mongoose stems which he has now sold.
I don't like the moosegoose either, looks like a clown bike
