I stopped by the BMW Motorrad dealer today to pick up a few parts I ordered and enjoyed checking out all the beautiful bikes. These R nineT Scramblers were so cool!
Always fun to check out the toys. 😀

This evening I did a bit of maintenance on Kiki (my motorbike): check oil, check coolant level, and check battery water level. I also removed some wiring I had added to rig up a Garmin GPS unit that I no longer use.
Then I went for a few laps around my neighborhood testing out different GoPro settings, and I have found that on my GoPro Hero9, Wide with High stabilization seems to be best. This is for the chin-mounted camera position. I want to add a handlebar cam that points back at me, and I have a mount set up for either GoPro or iPhone. I just need to test it out. Maybe later this weekend. 😀

I hope you had a good day! またね〜

This evening I finished season 2 of one of Laid-Back Camp / ゆるキャン△ which is one of my favorite manga/anime. I love camping, Japan, and motorbikes, and this anime has all three! I also don’t like violent or gory shows (Demon Slayer is pretty much my limit) and Laid-Back Camp is neither. It’s a wholesome, slice-of-life anime which actually imparts some basic camping knowledge and sightseeing tips for the Yamanashi Prefecture in Japan. It’s fun!
Anyways, the Laid-Back Camp movie is scheduled to be released in Japan next month, and hopefully it’ll make it’s way to the US. I hope I can catch it on the big-screen!
