As 2025 is gradually drawing to a close, what kind of year has it been for you?When it comes to riding, although temperatures heading into winter dropped more gently than usual, the summer was relentlessly hot, and many of you may have found fewer opportunities to ride.

From the United States, we feature the HONOLULU CENTURY RIDE in Honolulu […]

TV Producer Daisaku Kawase’s Five Boro Bike Tour Participation Report!
Falling in Love with New York Vol.6

FIVE BORO BIKE TOUR 2024 🇺🇸

An Extraordinary Experience: Racing Through Manhattan The “FIVE BORO BIKE TOUR,” commonly known as Bike New York, is held every May in New York City. It’s the largest event of its kind in the Northern Hemisphere, drawing cycling enthusiasts from around the world. About 30,000 people gathered with smiles on their faces, and of course, I was one of them. I wondered what kinds of bicycles everyone would be riding and what sights I would see as the morning of the event arrived. Around 5:30 a.m., in the dim light, I first rented a bicycle. They helped me choose a bike that fit my size and even adjusted the saddle, giving me a sense of security right from the start. It’s am […]
