“Focus on the journey, not the destination.”

They say tunnels are the enemies of cycle tourists doing a Japan bikepacking adventure. The older tunnels like this one in Shizuoka prefecture have no cycling or pedestrian path and have narrow sidewalks instead. We, however, prepared for tunnel riding such that our lights and rear blinkers are always ready. We also enjoyed the experience of riding this tunnel as this is quite a long one, and we got quite a few waves and smiles from motorists who are quite happy to give us a more than enough space when overtaking us. Cheers to all those cyclist friendly Japanese motorists. #tunnels #Japantunnels #JapanCyclingNavigator #bikepacking #bikepackingJapan #bikepackingNagoyaToTokyo

Finally found a car wash for the big van. #H350 #hyundaih350 #h350clubph

Riding two abreast. On some wider paths, we are able to ride side by side, talk to each other and appreciate the views together. #bikepacking #bikepackingJapan #bikepackingnagoyatotokyo

The day before we flew back home to Manila, we did a bike tour of Tokyo. We love the urban landscape and the cycling culture of the city. Most of all, we love the very friendly people, one of whom volunteered to take this photo of our group with the Tokyo Skytree in the background. #Tokyo #skytree #tokyocycling #bikepacking #bikepackingJapan #bikepackingNagoyaToTokyo #bikepackingphilippines #surly #surlybikes #surlybikesjapan #surlybikesphilippines

We did a bit of a photo shoot with our bikes and the beautiful Lake Ashi. #lakeashi #mtfuji #hakone #bikepacking #bikepackingJapan #bikepackingNagoyaToTokyo #bikepackingphilippines #surly #surlybikes #surlybikesjapan #surlybikesphilippines

We spent quite some time in Hakone before cycling on to Kamakura because the beauty of Lake Ashi with Mount Fuji in the background was really mesmerizing. #bikepacking #bikepackingJapan #bikepackingNagoyaToTokyo

For 6 straight pedal days, starting from the morning we assembled our bikes in Tokoname (near Nagoya Airport), until the night when we reached our final accomodation in Asakusa, Tokyo, we were blessed with beautiful cycling weather. It rained only on the 7th day, our first morning in Tokyo. Had it rained in one of those 6 days, it could have messed up our schedule. When we do these bikepacking adventures, we are always at the mercy of the weather condition, but for those 6 days, the weather gods smiled on us.
