This blog is about travelling through Japan on a bicycle. Initially on a foldable bicycle (Brompton) and more recently mostly by road bike (Spezialized)... but also by train, ferry, plane, bus or any other transport, if sea, weather, mountains or the like come between me and my desire to ride.
I have tried to summarise information that could be potentially helpful also for other bicycle travellers through Japan, such as list of bicycle roads, helpful web pages etc.

Shizuoka & Aichi - possible routes

Webpage of Shizuoka prefecture with several recommended routes: https://shizuoka-guide.com/english/cycling/#tmp_area_cours_03 some of which I tried out here and here

Shizuoka to Irago, along the pacific coast ⇒ 2-3 days, 182 km
  • Access by Ferry to Ise, about 8 ferries per day, last ferry 17:40, 1 h 

If one goes to Inuyama, there is also a suggested tour around the city

Here a link to a summary of the actual ride, which was pretty similar to plan. As said above however the Pacific Coast Cycling Route however needs some important improvements. There are good and great parts:

 ...but then there are also parts that are not passible at all:


Minamikamo & Inujima

Here a possible way how to incorporate it into a long ride from Yamanashi to Lake Biwa. With a bus ride between Iida and Magome (which seems to be relatively frequent).
