A record of Hiroshima staffer Ikeda's 500km, four-part permanent ride as he aims for the Super Permanent Randonneur (SPR) title. This is a straightforward account of the realities of long-distance riding, covering everything from the rain in Tokuyama and a nail puncture in Sanbe, to the fierce struggle of the Shimanami and Tobishima Kaido rides.
What Ikeda, a staff member in Hiroshima, learned when he started riding with the goal of becoming a "Super Permanent Randonneur (SPR)." A long-ride introductory guide from Hiroshima, covering what "permanent" means, his partner Sig.Rando, and how to get the essential equipment for a Brevet.
Introducing Sig.Rando, the grumpy original chromoly touring bike that's been the companion of our staff member, Ikeda, who's owned over 40 bikes. We'll be covering its custom configuration, cargo capacity, and comfort during Audax rides, brought to you by Grumpy, a bicycle select shop in Hiroshima.
