White line. Engines. Stoplights. Trucks brushing past.
Imperial Palace laps, then deeper into the city’s pulse.

This is not quiet cycling.
It’s rhythm, awareness, and momentum.

And then—suddenly—you’re off the bike, walking it across Shibuya Crossing, absorbed into the crowd like everyone else.

Tokyo doesn’t yield itself easily.
But ride it long enough, and it lets you pass through.

90 seconds
Tokyo → Shibuya

Consider it a tune-up for Cycling the Old Roads of Japan, a full journey from Tokyo through Kyoto and back.
