In addition to this, we can also rent a bicycle. In this article, we will look for information about cycling in Tokyo.

As you can see from the picture above, community cycle is a bicycle sharing system. This is operated by docomo, which is one of the biggest mobile phone operators in Japan. 1 day pass only costs JPY 1,500 and there is no additional charge other than this price. If you want to use your credit card for payment, you must use Kiosk, which is a machine you can find when doing self check in at airport.

There is a 22 kilometers cycling road at Lake Tama so you will feel comfortable riding a bicycle here. Though Lake Tama is located in Tokyo, it takes approximately an hour from Shinjuku station to get there by train. There is a bridge which played a role as a background of famous animation Neighbor Totoro. Enjoy cool wind with riding a bicycle and nice scenery as well.
