Getting ready for your Tokyo bike tour? The good news — you don’t need special cycling gear. Our rides are relaxed, comfortable, and designed for everyday travelers.

Here’s what we recommend wearing to stay comfortable while exploring the city on two wheels.

Comfortable, Breathable Clothing

Wear clothes you’d feel comfortable walking around in for a few hours.

T-shirts, light long sleeves, or breathable tops
Athletic wear or casual outfits
Avoid heavy fabrics like thick denim in summer

Tokyo weather can change by season, so light layers are always a smart choice.

Closed-Toe Shoes

Sneakers or comfortable walking shoes are ideal.

Avoid sandals or flip-flops
Choose shoes with good grip
Make sure they’re comfortable for pedaling

You’ll be stopping for photos and short walks, so comfort matters.

Dress for the Season

Spring & Autumn:
Light jacket or sweater for cooler mornings.

Summer:
Light, moisture-wicking clothing and sunglasses. Early morning and sunset rides are most comfortable.

Winter:
Layer up — long sleeves, a warm jacket, gloves, and a scarf if needed. Tokyo winters are dry but chilly.

Travel Light

Bring only what you need:

Small backpack or crossbody bag
Water bottle
Sunscreen
Sunglasses

We recommend avoiding large or heavy bags while riding.

Do I Need a Helmet?

Helmets are available for rental and recommended for all riders. Safety always comes first.

Final Tip

The key is simple: wear something comfortable, weather-appropriate, and easy to move in. Our tours are relaxed and beginner-friendly — no racing, no pressure.

Just come ready to enjoy Tokyo from a new perspective.
