Before the homecoming

BH8P6134

It took a little while from the last time diary. I was overwhelmed by despair of retired the rally and I was withdrawal in the hotel room alone….. wrong. The reason why I could not upadated my diary was I was offline from the ineternet for a while. Fianbala’s bivouac located in country side and there was no internet connection.

I left the team and I’m on the way to Santiago, the town of Dakar Rally goal alone. I feel so free and easy now and I felt the team members wondered how to treat me. It is better to off the company in this kind of situation. So I’m in the process of scheduling to return to Japan.

Though I say so myself, there is no good mark this time. It was the first Dakar Rally such a miserable in my history. It was the first time retired due to our miss too. This is the best situation for losing my aplomb lol, however I know the cause is in myself and it is easy to find what I do for the future.

The answer is growing myself. I will be better and stronger.

It’s a shame, but I can’t tell you about the next year now. I am not able to say like ” I do my best in the next year !” that is the difference and hard part of the rally compare to other motor sports.
I should say so but I am not that kind of person. Sorry.

I never give up. I will think deeply include what I want to do for the next year and go forward.

Thank you so much.

    ありのままをレポートして頂き有り難うございます。ダカールの報道を見るにつけ、ここに欠けているものは三橋選手だ!と思う毎日です。シェーン・カム・バック!ならぬジュン・カム・バック!というところです。目的を達して荒野を背にする日が来て欲しいものです。

    Do not lose faith in yourself! Next rally will be amazing and you’ll get a great result! We want to see you always with a smile. Look ahead! :) Mary

    淳さん、お疲れ様でした。

    この状況をどうとらえるか、どう動くか、三橋選手らしい選択だと思いました。
    その裏には、外部に知られていない苦労や悔しさがたくさんあるでしょう。オフィシャルには言えないことは、ぜひ身近な方々にどんどん会って話して発散して下さい。先のことは先になりゃ決まりますしね。
    それでどんな道を行こうが、全面的に支持しますよ。

    プロダクション/メーカー、スポンサー、メディアよりも三橋選手サイドで、今後も見守っとります。

    もしや今頃映画でもご覧になってらっしゃるんでしょうか。
    日本の裏側は流石に暑そうですし、時差体調他様々なコンディションの管理が大変ですね。
    で、センスの謎は半袖の写真だけ見ると、暑いから両手で煽いでいるのかな?と見えてしまいますけど、正解は果して?明日か明後日のトーチュウぜひ見ます。
