Autumn leaves in Ashikaga

We Tokyo Backstreets Bike Tour have a tour in Ashikaga, about 2 hours by train from the central Tokyo. We use rent-a-bike there.

Now, you can enjoy a lot of autumn leaves with wonderful red and yellow colours at a few places inside the town.

It must be ideal place to see the leaves by day trip from Tokyo.

You can also taste some local foods of Ashikaga.

Okonomiyaki in Innoshima island

You may know “Okonomiyaki” , a kind of pancakes, contains various ingredients such as meat, fish, vegetables. You can eat it at almost all areas in Japan, but this is something special. Enjoy the video!

A guided tour with Bromptons by a local guide

We found a good guided bike tour in Ehime, Shikoku island.

Located near the Shimanamikaido, one of the most popular cycle ways in Japan, they organize some unique tours with Bromptons.

Miwa, a local guide, will show you hidden gems which you never find on websites or guidebook.

When you visit there, we highly recommend their tours, Go! Go! Brompton.

Ramen tour

I

If you are a ramen lover, joining a guided tour might be a good option. Brian, an American guy living in Tokyo, has organized ramen tours for a long time and has a good reputation.
After I met him in Shinjuku, I visited a ramen restaurant which he recommended. “Nagi” serves fine ramen with niboshi, a kind of dried sardine. It was fantastic!

If you wish to cycle in the west Tokyo……

We Tokyo Backstreets Bike Tour have bike tours in the north part of Tokyo, including Asakusa, Yanaka, but if you wish to see rather the west, you can join the DIG TOKYO TOURS. This tour is operated by Andy, Australian guy. He has been in Japan so long time so that he knows the backstreets of this area as well as streetfoods.
His base is located near the Koenji railway station, where young people love to live because there are a lot of lovely second-hand clothes shops, Izakaya bars, restaurants and so on.

I had a hamburger stake for lunch after I visited Andy in Koenji. It cost only 680 JPY, less than 7 USD!


This area is sometimes called “City of rock music”, because there are a few live houses. If you dream to be a Japanese rock star, it might be ideal place to live!
