I used to drink beer (or vodka) on a regular basis, but then I dated someone for about a year who didn't drink alcohol, so I just sort of stopped drinking for that year, and then I never went back to it. I don't miss it at all, and I've never had a craving or a desire to since. I have a feeling that you'll feel exactly the same way. Thanks for another great video of Japan, and Happy Anniversary!!
Aloha from Maui! Thank you so much again for your videos. I am anxious to get back to Japan and your videos help fill that void. Always looking forward to the next one.
i love what you are doing bro, i been watching your channel lately and it bring back the old good memories when i worked there in Niigata ken. After 20 years the design of the house the roads are still the same , i love the culture, the people in japan! more power on your channel and keep working on your video! Gambatte Kudasai!
Be safe out there. You and Thuong are both healthy, young people so hopefully even if you do catch coronavirus, you’ll recover quickly. That stuff aside, thanks for this video. It’s really cool to see some of the sights in Nagoya.
Congratulations, and happy anniversary. I've been through both Nagoya JR and Kintetsu station dozens of times, but rarely ventured far beyond. I do remember causing a slight stir in a restaurant in one of the towers though: apparently they were not used to westerners who can use chopsticks and the kitchen staff came out to see. After watching your videos I reckon you're more at risk from some of that highly unpredictable traffic than any bugs that may be going about.
Yay Meat!! I remember staying in Japan for a little while and all I wanted was more meat as well.. only options were McDonald's double beef parties or the Japanese bbq to carve my cravings. I can relate to Truong lol... Happy anniversary you guys.
Loved the video some cool landmarks and btw your not annoying at all because sometimes i talk a lot as well lol my wife told she's fine with it cuz i talk when im happy which is true I'd say everyone should be happy it's a key for a healthy life👍👌 keep it up And ride safe☺
Hi two wheel cruise, the name of the donut store got edited out. I love Mr. Donut with its light fluffy donuts. I assume that is the donut shop you were referring too. My favorite is Angel Cream. I miss Nagoya. Did you know it was originally an American donut shop on the east coast. Google, Mr. Donut for the history. Take care, you both be safe over there. Happy Anniversary! 👍🏻😀
Yes, it was Mr. Donut, and wow I did not know it was originally from the US. I personally can't stand the light donuts, I need something much heavier 😅
Hey Cruise, I just discovered your videos and like them already. Please make a video on how you got into cycling and how you got to knowing so much about bikes. I want to get into cycling. I am a newbie 😁
Thanks for watching! :) Here's an older video I made talking about how I got into cycling ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sLp69IEP1os.html
The tracks near me make so much noise I get nervous under them. The tracks are way lower and damn they are loud. As a former bodyguard first responder, I guess I can say it's one of the few things that I get a scared feeling from. Very nice footage. I am wondering if Japan had Alcoholics Anonymous or A.A. They are very good meetings to go to even if you don't have a drinking problem.
Two Wheel Cruise - But, of course, you know the meaning of the title: “Clickety-Clack” - or the sound that a train makes on the tracks. Dodes’ka-den, dodes’ka-den, dodes’ka-den. You hear that sound clearly at the start of the video. :)
Coronavirus is one of the reasons I recommend cycling to my friends, mostly to avoid the cramped trains and busses. Unfortunately, it started snowing here in Estonia again so cycling isn't the easiest if you don't have a bike capable of using MTB wheels.
"Just a blue dress." Maybe it is just the lightning and at it from a video, but it seems purple to me. Is this going to be one of those "Everyone sees a different colour" thing.
I would love to watch what kind of gear (shimano, sram...) you prefer on MTB and road bike? Do you like high end gear or are you satisfied with whatever gear the store gives you? There are many different combination of gear with same name and different version that is insane...Your buyers guide :) i am looking into hardtail MTB around 1k€ and i am confused....also want to get one for my wife and eventualy my kid :D
Depends on where you live. I used to like SRAM when I lived in the US, but it's an expensive pain in Japan and SHIMANO is much cheaper and easy to get. Both work fine for the most part, so depends on what you're looking for. I usually prefer mid-performance level like Ultegra/Rival, but modern 105 seems legit
Europe. Slovenia. I also prefer mid-performance gear. I rode my last MTB bike aprox. 10+ years and is stil ok with full Deore gear. Now with new bikes i am confused. There are different types of random gear equiped. Example: Scott scale 960 2020, 1200$ Drivetrain: SRAM NX Eagle 12 Speed (rear) / SRAM SX Eagle Trigger / 12-speed. So the question is would you go full NX (Deore or XT) no matter the cost? Sorry i think i am complicating but it seems that for the price its should be full NX gear and the shop is overpriced? I love your videos and your thoughts on stuff. Thank you :)
Are you able to bike ride long distance in casual clothes or do you prefer cycling clothes especially padded pants? I've been commuting by bike in jeans and casual clothes to the office for many years although my trip is around 8-10 miles one way usually and I wonder if it is recommended to buy cycling pants with the pads for really long distance bike trips such as for 20+ miles? My bike saddle on all my bikes have very thin padding and I sometimes but not always, have to scoot my bum around the saddle after several minutes into the ride. Sometimes, I'll feel some hot spots and other times, I feel the boney part of my rear soar from sitting in the hard saddle. Does Japan media hype the corona virus news? I know USA media loves to hype it up to get the views or clicks which as a consequences cause societal panic. There's already people hording supplies and clearing the shelves at markets so when others really need it, they can't get access to it. What a society we live in. I just recently started hearing news that my local markets and Costco have pallets of rice and bottled water cleared out pretty quickly. I blame the media for hyping it especially in the age of the internet which accurate and misinformed information travels and is received instantly. D:
Yes, we are able to ride a fair distance in normal clothes with no problems, but definitely prefer cycling clothes if we know it will be longer than an hour or so. Our Taiwan Toroko Gorge ride pushed our limits a bit for riding in normal clothes and sandals haha. It's not just the long distance, but if there is a lot of repetition (like riding everyday) the pads can help a TON. Regular clothes have more friction and more friction can lead to more irritation. You can adapt to it to a certain extent, but I think your bum would appreciate switching to cycling shorts as often as you can. Yes, the coronavirus news has gotten pretty intense lately. Thuong went to film a video at the supermarket at opening time this morning and will be uploading it to her walking channel soon. All the rice and toilet paper was cleared out in the first few minutes.
It is crazy the amount of news about it here. That said though, it’s definitely a be smart about it sort of thing. I’m only slightly more on edge because even though I’m in that demographic that is more likely to recover if caught, I have autoimmune issues that make me more susceptible to catching and suffering from it. So yeah, not in panic mode but slightly worried. Am in an area though where if it does spread to here, would likely not see it until mid to late March. For commuting in normal clothes, you can look for a liner short that are basically padded cycling shorts you can wear under street clothes. It’s thinner than normal cycling shorts (basically underwear with a chamois). When I do the occasional costume ride for whatever event, I wear one.
@@TwoWheelCruise I also heard of such reports from Japan Travel channel which the shelves in markets were cleared but jokingly said that it was due to school being canceled and parents need to make more food at home for their kids because they originally thought the kids were supposed to eat at school. xD But anyways, stay safe and healthy. :)
