  1. Thanks Snowdude. I should have pointed out, that I don't have a bike license from any country. I think it was 17 lessons in total for that price.
  2. Sounds great but with only a dozen or so people up there I wonder how they can stay open.
  3. Now that I am closer to 50 than 40, I think it is time to start a new easy going hobby and I like the idea of cruising around on a motorcycle. I checked online and gathered that there are three main types of license. Under 125cc Under 400cc Over 400cc I looked into the costs at a nearby driving school and its about 140,000 yen for the license for an under 400cc (I think). But i was told by a friend that I might be disappointed with a under 400cc bike and that I should try for the "ogata" license Does anyone have any thoughts or experience in getting their bike license here i
  4. Mamabear - you never know....., your sons could get in the Olympic team and then you can free tickets.
  5. Its a great shot Muika-san. There is another one of Happo I really like that you took. The one with the ski instructors on one of the quad lifts.
  6. I had some Dutch licorice this afternoon. Very very good.
  7. I guess the chauffeur was glad he was off to school
  8. my previous office was across the road from a large call center. We poached two of their employees. They became our best sales people. One of them could talk the hind leg off a donkey.
  9. early days yet, but that man-in-japan is top again this week
  10. me too. The ones I looked at can also work in -25c cold weather. I am tempted to buy....
  11. Actually quite strange - My wife asked me yesterday - Do we need new snow tires this year? Maybe she saw a commercial on TV. Or just that it is now September
  12. We went to Ks Denki on Saturday to look at reverse cycle aircons. The staff told us that the pricing should be coming down in October or November.
  13. I hope so, we need an exciting game to get the season underway. We haven't had many good games yet.
  14. I think Assad is hoping for the same
  15. I am always amazed that the taxis in Hakuba are not 4wd. They look more like city cabs than resort ones.
  16. It's good to go home and try all the foods that you miss, including your Mother's. I have a sweet tooth so I like to visit the local sweet stall on the market. How many lbs did you put on Pieman?
  17. The French would surrender before they started, the Germans...well they like starting wars
