I think I'm turning Japanese

I love visiting Japanese web sites about touring, randonneuring, and pass hunting. Come to think of it, I've developed a taste for artisinal sake, and reading about Japanese history and Japanese art, and I use many traditional Japanese woodworking tools. Strange for someone who was born and spent his early life in Europe.

The Japanese love of nature and great appreciation of art and style translates into their bikes and their riding. So here are a few links to my favorite Japanese bike sites:
