Madsaki and Meiji Shrine

On Sunday met up with artist Madsaki, fixed gear rider for life. Madsaki is one cool kat, he grew up in NYC, and during his later years in the States he got his hustle on as nyc bike messenger. He’s been riding fixed before it was cool. Madsaki took me to a sushi spot where we grubbed down. Aside from the usual sushi joints, Madsaki ordered us a triple dipple special of love.. I have no idea what he said to the chef but they all repeated it a few times and next thing I know 3 morsels of love came before me.. Right after I ate one of them I wished I hadn’t cuz I thought that just had ate the best one.. But noooo they were all yummy for my tummy, all as good as the next.. Tokyo kills me..

After lunch we headed over to Meiji Shrine. Tucked in the middle of Shibuya, right next to Yoyogi park is Meiji Shrine a refuge of nature.
