Day 85 (July 6, 2017)

Minamisōma, Fukushima → Marumori, Miyagi

When Mazda dreams of itself, it dreams perhaps of the three-wheelers, without which there would be no Le Mans to dream of, no sun-dappled mountain roads for Miatas. The three-wheel Mazda-Go, in 1931, was Mazda’s first vehicle, and they kept making them for 40 years. This, the T2000, was the last, a Japanese giant hornet to the European honeybee of a Piaggio Ape, good for two tons. Don’t bring a trailer: it’s got one.
