Takashi Aramoto has been selling his cakes by bicycle for 30 years in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan. The 62-year-old has no problem riding well over 20 kilometers a day to bring the baked goods to his customers. Rain or shine, brutal winter or scorching summer, Takashi is hard at work. As a result, he's built up a faithful clientele who love his cakes and respect his work ethic. In return, he's loyal to them, including those who lost everything in the disastrous Kumamoto earthquakes in 2016. We'll head out to discover the source of his power and motivation.
