Hi all,
I'm an academic new to Tokyo living in the Ueno area. I'm originally from Malaysia but have wandered around quite a bit: my last domicile was the San Francisco Bay Area.
I'm definitely not a racer but like long rides that take me a good distance: my typical flat pace but relatively slower on climbs as I'm out of shape. I like to put in at least a 100km ride in the weekends, and enjoy riding in sportives, gran fondos, and centuries.
My first adventure last weekend after putting my bike back together was to go up to Tsukuba to link up with the RinRin Road to Iwase (with a digression to hunt for a rinko bukuro!). After a rather hair-raising 1.5hrs to get out of Taito and Adachi, I would particularly appreciate suggestions for how to find road bike-friendly routes within the city.
Hope to ride with your guys!
