So the holiday continues with another early morning loop ride – which includes a stop for breakfast.
Today Kym’s planning took us in a different direction. Once we got through the Tokyo Dome early morning rush near Suidobashi… we headed through the back streets.

We cycled through a university…



.. and then there were some small hills involved and steps. But thankfully where there are steps you can usually find a place to wheel your bike down them safely.
Afterwards we walked our bikes through the Nedujinja Shrine (hopefully that’s the right one)… and back again through the back streets to Cibi the sister coffee shop to the Melbourne Cibi… and as you can imagine the food was just perfect for the mornings effort.

… and here’s the food. You too can enjoy their food by visiting Cibi in Melbourne.. and they also have a book with recipes too!




Afterwards we continued through the back streets (great way to avoid traffic) through a cemetery… Ueno park and back along the train lines to the hotel. Great ride – thanks for the planning Kym











Surprisingly quiet and peaceful, obviously very relaxing – but where are all the people? Or was it too early for them perhaps……..?

… it’s possible to take shots without people. It’s also early and the university was not as busy as outside schools..!

The one time I HAVE ridden in Tokyo, we rented Tokyo bikes and had lunch at Cibi. So good! Cycling through the backstreets in and around Ueno and Ueno park was cool too.

There is a lot of interesting back streets around Tokyo. We’re now doing interesting riding in Shimane prefecture.
