BIKE DESIGNERS MEETING vol.1: Combined Owners Meeting  We had a combined owners meeting on July 19th (Mon) in 2004. Owners of bikes created by Shukuno-rintendo, Tartaruga, and Vikkino assembled together. At the time, Studiostudy didn't have commercial bikes, but many supporter came to the meeting. Each number of each product is only a few and we usually don't have a chance to meet another owner nor talk together. So we had really good time to talk about bikes, get the information, and so on. Thank you very much for coming to the party. |

 It was the very unusual scene that many of rare bikes run the race in every
a few minutes in turn. We excited to see riders in special costumes and
a kid rider who is a famous rider's grandson. We could know how owners
use and love their bikes. For example, we saw a bike had baggage on it
and a bike which was shined by its owner. |

 Mr. Maeda won and nobody expected that he did. He wore the sandals on and
rode on Beetrick BOB, which is very difficult to control. Congratulations!
He got a special wind-bell colored by Kadowaki, chemicals for bike maintenance
sponsored by Mizutani, and E.T. model BMX by Kuwahara as a prize. We are
waiting for his challenge to Power assisted class with E.T. next time! |
