Yamashita(His official site), one of our voluntary members, has been hosting BIKE & CAMP for years. It was held three times in Mie, but this time it is to be held in Kasumigaura, Ibaragi. The title, BIKE & CAMP KANTOU, also appeals that it is the event in the Kanto area.
You can enjoy both bike and camp during the two-day event. There is lending of bikes and helmets, but you need to prepare a camping tent by yourself.
We are going to set up a booth of our NGO to introduce our activity and raise fund for it. We will also help lending helmets there. All the rental fee is to be donated to our NGO. We’d like everyone to join the event.
