Our traditional picnic ride. Not at night, but in broad daylight. If you have one, please bring a picnic sheet.

When:

• We will meet at 11:00 and then start the ride at 11:30. If you are there, you are welcome to join us in the ride. We will not pass an attendee list. So please be on time.

Where:

• You'll find us in front of United Nations University on the sidewalk. Just look out for people with bicycles (some of them strange, e.g. tall bikes).

Route:

• We'll be riding through Shibuya, Setagaya and Suginami to Wadabori park where we will have our picnic.

Duration of ride:

• The duration of the ride will depend on our speed, but you can drop off anytime during the ride (just let someone know so we don't think we lost you). 2 h is a good estimate.
• Route about 12-15 km
• We will stop during the ride for a rest and at the end for the picnic!
• We will also stop in Eifukucho to buy things for picnic, but if you want to bring snacks from home that is perfect as well
• please note that in Japan you cannot bring a bicycle on the train without it being in a bag

What to bring:

• a sheet for the picnic
• if you want, some music instrument or some other things to play in the park

If you don't have a bicycle, you could rent one, e.g. with docomo: http://docomo-cycle.jp/shibuya/en/

Speed / Fitness / Skills required

• Riding speed is very relaxed.
• But you need to be fine with riding on busy (and not so busy) Tokyo streets.

Note, while tourists are welcome, this is not a guided tour, but a ride through Tokyo with friendly locals and a few foreign residents (depending on actual attendees this night).
