I was also going to suggest Matt try that group, or TCC (tokyocycle.com) BBS for recommendations as I do not know much about Kyoto routes.<br />As for shiroyama hikes ... I was looking a bit longingly at the big houses in the area and thinking ... if only the elevation was a couple hundred meters higher so that it was cooler in the summer ... it might be a good 3- or 4- day a week location on the edge of the countryside. But I think I would miss the urban experiences and my next move is probably closer bit further from the middle of town?David Litthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09821846303393230109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730233429051035621.post-68645308696361011882017-01-07T06:06:30.935+09:002017-01-07T06:06:30.935+09:00Matt,

Can you recommend any resources for bike rental and route planning?

I have a crazy walking route (from near Machida Cherubim), which takes me along the Sakai river to Hashimoto > horrible walk (or bus if I'm lazy) to Shiroyama > walk along a mountain path to near Mt Takao > walk mainly along rivers back home (or take an urban route via Aihara). Sometimes I include the entire length of the Tank Road (including the extension to route 16) on the way out, or back.<br /><br />That fact that I can do this (or an endless number of variables) just by walking outside my front door, makes me content to live in the boonies :-)<br /><br />Somehow these days I walk much more than I cycle ...Richardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01219562983183739640noreply@blogger.com
