Yolo Jolo Bike Tour
Description
Book Introduction
“Aren’t you the YouTuber who rides a bike with her father and daughter?” I was moved by my father's boyish laughter. The author has been riding a bike without his father's knowledge for over five years. A sense of liberation comes when you sit on a bike and feel the seasons with your whole body. Feelings of lethargy subside and new inspiration arises. Suddenly, I became greedy. They say that every man has a romantic idea about bikes. It seemed like even my dad, who had worked his entire life, needed something new. I made a phone call. “Dad, do you want to see my bike? Can you come out now?” A few days later, I recorded a video of myself giving my dad the bike and uploaded it to YouTube. Within a short time, the number of views exceeded 1 million, and offers for TV appearances poured in. “I heard that your father was initially against the bike. “Could you tell us the story from that point on?” And so the filming began. “Thanks to my beloved daughter, I am able to participate in the father-daughter riding. “The second act of my life has begun.” Is there a separate age for youth? "Yolo-Jolo Bike Trip" is something I like to do. It's about refreshing your tired mind and living an energetic daily life. That's what youth is all about. The world of bikes that the author experienced was warm and safe. Also, the sense of belonging that the 'Rider' group gave me felt different, as if I had been given a new name. The author says that if there is something you are interested in, it is okay to have the courage to try it. He adds that an unexpected gift may come at the end of your choice. |

Into the book
From afar, a white motorcycle was approaching with a single-cylinder sound.
“This is the bike!”
SYM Wolf Classic 125.
I checked the condition while hesitating.
Even though I looked like a beginner, the bike owner kindly explained everything to me.
“I’ll ride it cleanly so I can ride it right away without any problems.”
---From "I'm Going to Meet You Now"
I lost sleep over things to watch out for while riding a bike and finding helpful information to help me enjoy a healthy bike life.
Even though I had already looked it up countless times, I reviewed it again.
There were many things to learn, such as the front and rear brakes and how to operate the gears.
It is similar to playing the piano, where the positions and uses of the left and right hands are different, but they must be used together to play.
At the same time, you must also get used to the movement of your feet to press the pedals.
I, too, have imagined countless times how I should play the instrument called the bike.
Like a performer who loses sleep over many nights preparing to stand on stage.
---From "A Thrilling First Drive"
We had a brief conversation and he told me that he and his husband were enjoying the bike life.
“I’ll ride the Benly 110 for a bit and then move up to a bigger bike.”
"sure.
“Actually, I was going to ride a Wolf 125 but I gave up and decided to start from scratch.”
The boss listened to me and at first sympathized, saying that anyone could do that.
How comforting that empathy is.
---From "Let's go buy a helmet"
It must have been around Bongpyeong.
I was running forward without thinking, and then I suddenly came to my senses.
From far away, a car with a familiar license plate was driving in the opposite lane.
It was my dad's car.
If it were a normal day, I would have honked my horn, waved, and even called him, but he just passed me by with his head down like a guilty person.
Actually, in a way, it was the person who committed the crime.
It was because I was doing 'Molba', riding a bike without my dad knowing.
---From "The First Long-Distance Tour Full of Excitement"
Once you start riding a bike, you'll eventually end up with that dream bike.
My dream bike was a Honda CB1100.
Honda's CB line has a history of nearly 60 years, and the biggest bike among them is the CB1100.
I was really attracted to the fact that it was a classic bike with 1,140cc and 4 cylinders.
I've only driven single-cylinder engines so far, so what would a four-cylinder engine feel like?
From that curiosity, my eccentricity became incurable.
---From "Caution on Infection with a Mutant Disease, 2 Small Challenges"
Since there were people on my father's side who had died in accidents while riding a motorcycle, my father was in a position where he couldn't help but be even more opposed.
In this situation, I was able to ride around without my father knowing.
The reason I was able to ride around like this secretly was because my father didn't even suspect anything.
When I went out riding, I would quickly leave while my dad was focused on something else, and I would carry a backpack and hide my helmet in the bag.
The Benli 110 was even less likely to be discovered because the helmet could be stored in the top box.
As a result, I was able to continue living a Molva life.
Although I found it funny how I looked like that, my passion for bikes was so strong that I didn't want to give up.
---From "The Unspeakable Secret, Molba"
After confessing my love to my father, I was lost in thought.
Seeing that my dad's reaction wasn't bad, I started to think, 'Maybe Dad actually has a romantic interest in bikes too?'
Although I have been opposed to the idea of bikes being dangerous and due to incidents around them, I wonder if there is a seed of admiration that has taken root in my heart.
Because I heard that my dad often borrowed his uncle's bike to ride when he was in his 20s.
He said that after a date with his mother, he would take her home on his uncle's bike on a dirt road.
When I heard that story and imagined it, my heart started to flutter for no reason.
---From "Bike Evangelist"
"I suggested my dad get a bike, so why don't I give him one?" The Rebel 500 wasn't exactly expensive, but as a freelancer, my income wasn't steady.
I needed time to think about it.
And soon I made up my mind.
Any further worrying would only delay Dad's time to enjoy his bike.
I told my dad I was going to Seoul to look at bikes, and headed to a store that was selling Rebel 500s.
---From "Surprise"
Today, I came to Mom's oxygen bar as Dad's first riding destination because I wanted to share the joy of starting the second act of his life with Mom.
Next to the big house, there is my mother's grave along with my grandparents' graves.
“Mom, we’re here.”
“Chunhee, I’m here.
How have you been? My daughter bought me a motorcycle, so we rode it together.
If I were alive, I would ride with you and make many good memories.
“What a pity, isn’t it?”
---From "The Prologue to the Daughter's Moto Diary"
One day, a video of him giving his dad a bike as a gift surpassed 1 million views.
I was surprised by the number of views I never imagined, and my dad and I had so much fun reading the comments every day that we didn't even realize how much time had passed.
In fact, whenever my dad had time, he would read YouTube comments and enjoy each day, forgetting about his fatigue.
Honestly, filming YouTube videos with my dad has really changed my daily life.
I started getting calls from various media outlets.
The first place I was contacted was Wonju MBC.
---From "I never thought I'd be on TV"
Winter has come before we knew it.
This season, with snow piled up on every street, is not a very welcome season for riders.
Riding on snowy or icy roads is really dangerous, so I disconnect my bike's battery at this time of year.
It is sealed for a while and then the season begins again when spring comes.
Most of the time, yes.
But winter also often shows its sunshine.
I decided to seize that precious day and go on a ride to Taekisan Mountain in Hoengseong.
---From "Between Cold and Passion, Taekisan"
One night, I unfolded my wishes, which I had kept crumpled up in my pocket, one by one.
An overseas trip postponed due to COVID-19, a bike tour around the country that I've always dreamed of, expanding a business I started because I thought it would be fun, and definitely releasing an album this year.
My carefully folded bucket list was shining in my pocket.
---From "Around the Country"
The thought suddenly occurred to me, 'What if I took a spontaneous trip?'
It's about going to an unspecified place.
Just as youth is beautiful because it often wavers in the process because it doesn't know the outcome, it originated from the thought that 'maybe we can gain something unexpectedly precious from an unexpected journey?'
I thought it would be fun to spontaneously ask my YouTube subscribers and social media followers to decide where I should go next.
“This is the bike!”

Publisher's Review
〈Squirrel's Yolo Jolo〉, loved by 50,000 subscribers
Embark on a long-time bucket list journey across the country.
The author decides to travel around the country alone and sets out on the road with his father's support.
Riding in the hot summer, enduring the heat of the heated asphalt.
That too for a moment.
I attached an action cam to my helmet to record footage, but it wouldn't stay put and kept falling off.
The courage I'd gathered over the past several days for today's journey and the encouragement I'd received from friends seemed insignificant, and I was tempted to postpone my trip by a day. But I regained my original intention and set off.
Some days, it rains heavily and there are no restaurants in sight to satisfy your hunger.
Yet, as we encounter an unexpectedly cheerful moment at the end, the sadness melts away helplessly.
One time, the car in front was driving slowly, so I tried to overtake it out of frustration, but failed.
My disappointment was fleeting, but the window of the car in front opened and I saw a raised thumb.
It was a moment like a gift.
The author has one thing to say to his followers and subscribers who love his riding.
“Please vote for our next destination.”
The voting results were unexpected.
Where is the author's destination? "Yolo-Jolo Bike Journey" lovingly describes the world of "biking," a hobby we've often struggled to embrace.
It also shows us what gifts life has in store for us when we are willing to focus on our own joy.
Listening to the author's story of traveling around the country brings a new excitement and makes me want to sing along.
I want to change my device
Rider's 'incurable disease', also known as 'gibyeonbyeong'
The author wanted to change the Benli 110, which he had been proud to ride for the rest of his life, to a different device.
Whenever I went on a long trip, I felt my life was in danger from the countless cars that would pass me, so I wanted to ride a quarter-ton bike.
However, bikes over 125cc had to obtain a Class 2 small license.
I decided to go to a driving school to learn how to ride safely.
A new challenge has begun again.
And you get to ride a variety of bikes.
How about going to Sokcho with a different bike than the one I went to with Benri 110?
Listening to the author's story, you can fully experience the excitement of leaving and the unexpected happiness discovered along the way.
I feel like I can be brave enough to stand up for myself and I want to go out and find happiness right away.
