Restore my dad's MTB

I'm waiting the rear derailleur and the thumb shifter. I can hardly wait to ride this bike in the mountain and the city.

Today's ride(East area of Toyota city)

This route has good climbs and downhills, no signals. It was pretty hard, but this route was worthwhile riding. Thanks for your attend, my captain!

Today's ride (Otaga mountain pass)

We started from here; Otaki valley parking.
Otaga pass(大多賀峠)looks like hill climber's Mecca in Aichi. Many riders tried to get their new record. This pass got to me. I have to try again!

Mountain pass at Mt Norikura

We climbed Mt Norikura by bicycle. The first hill killed us!
Every time I think this route is great. 
Tatamidaira(the highest bus terminal) was overwhelmed with climber and sightseer.
After blissful downhill, we had a Ramen lunch at Kikyoya in Takayama city. This restaurant's Ramen was simple but tasteful. I had another favorite Ramen spot in Takayama! Yay!

Mt komagadake

It's been a while since I climbed the mountain more than 2,500m.
 In the morning, it was so good weather. 
But the clouds were gathering us gradually.
And finally a top of mountain was completely cloudy. The weather on the mountain is variable, like someone's mind.

Assembling my old MTB ②

I bought the MTB components. I think that Shimano's DEORE is not only reasonable but also reliable. 
This handle bar is "Get around bar" by Sim-works. Maybe it will be a comfortable bar for me. I am looking forward to riding this bike, but this may take a while to assemble.
