Tokyo

Tokyo is a city that welcomes bicycles. The city has a fantastic public transit system and is densely populated. Especially if you want to explore the city's more residential parts, cycling is a terrific method to get around.

A network of protected bike lanes and trails is expanding in Tokyo. Congratulations to the municipal planners who added a dedicated bike lane to one of Tokyo's busiest streets. Biking around Tokyo is surprisingly simple. In a metropolis this enormous, you'd think it would be practically impossible to move around without a car, but that's not the case.

The government also created an educational curriculum to improve bicycle traffic manners for all two-wheelers. Locals in Tokyo are also amiable and helpful, so don’t be afraid to ask for help if you get lost. The city can be overwhelming at first, but it’s not.

The best bikes to use are hybrid bikes or mountain bikes. The best time to cycle in Tokyo is early morning or evening when the streets are less busy. Remember always to obey traffic signals and keep to the speed limit. The only challenge is the heavy traffic, but exploring this fantastic city by bike is worth it.
