- While it is rare these days, I do from time to time take the Train out to ride some routes I’ve not done before. This was a memorable one because of this amazing descent.
Also a little bit of a recap and a few tips on how you’d bring a bike on a train, from local trains to the bullet trains, aka Shinkansen

Also a correction: Shinkansen stops at Tokyo and SHINAGAWA station (not Shinbashi)
More corrections: I’m using the “canary” handle bar not the “Falcon”. Apologies for the confusion
That's a tasty treat.
💀No mistakes!💨
SAFA Brian commenting on Rides of Japan? Nice
Hear me out, RoJ chasing SAFA on the descent while Terry B filming
@@notpablo8369 Terry B couldn’t keep up with Lucas Brunelle
Hmmmmmmm 😊 Some classic Rides of Japan content, right here. Thank you for taking us along!
@6:25 80s pop synth, noice!
Just the pickup i needed 👍
The best decennium for music hehe
...der frühe vogel fängt den Wurm! German saying
11:04 'fatuige' -->> when your mouth dies from chewing rubber noodles!
Great video! My ears popped just watching
Enjoy the sunshine, looked like a lovely ride and well worth an early start. Thanks for the strava link, tells a bit more of the story. Nearest mountain road to me is 3000km away so I enjoyed the vicarious descending!
SUPERNICE!!! Thank you for all your inside knowledge and tips 👍🙏Will bring my bike for the next Japan trip 😍
Thanks for the treat!
Great video as always, Have you done the UFO line in Shikoku? If not put it on your bucket list. There is a terrific 150km loop from Saito Shi.
I have not, so so many areas I've not been to yet (despite the stupid channel name)
There is nothing better than lunch break and a Harakiri ride on the coast of Izu and easy listening music! 😉
Can't say if the new bars match the frame, but they do look clean AF while you're riding
That was GLORIOUS !
Definitely need to visit this this month. I'm mostly riding around Kyoto with it's fair share of nice routes, but this looks pretty fun.
I need to make it over to Shizuoka (and Nagano.. and so many areas) for riding. Nara/Kyoto has its fair share of great rides, though.
Some day I'll make it over to your area as well. There's basically no place that has "bad" rides in this blessed country 😂
Hot damn what a punch in the gut of 懐かしい that was. Thanks for this.
Landing in Japan this Friday and I'll be cycling Nagano/Gifu prefecture with a mate for a week. I'm bringing my bike (we are hiring a van). I'll have a Scicon bag. Be taking the Shinkansen from Tokyo Station to Ueda - hopefully no issues
Awesome footage as always. Not surprising that super-clean Japan (so I've heard) requires you to put the bike in a bag on the train! BTW, what width are those bars? Thanks!
38mm. Cheers!
Sry abt the jaw mount, one of the sweetest descents I've seen, amazing road!
5:10 those cars!
Exotics.
Needed a yeeeaoohhhhh as he flew past lol
This was extremely pleasurable, I wish there was a jaw drop emoji :)
Video and editing quality is epic. What camera+lens did you film with?
Don’t know if you’re being sarcastic or not haha… it is as basic as it gets everything is filmed with DJI action 4, all internal, auto exposure, straight cuts. No movie magic 😅
Cheers!
@@ridesofjapan Great work, dji!
@@ridesofjapan Tobias! Only someone who has reached your level of production skill while keeping their feet firmly on the ground (i.e., zero inflated ego) could jump to the conclusion that they're being criticised, not praised! 😂 You are clearly very talented, on top of being hard working. You're possibly an extreme perfectionist who only sees the flaws in their own work. We, on the outside, see excellent results informed by superlative creative instincts. Keep on doing what you're doing.
@@RedshiftDougal Cheer mate, I appreciate the kind words. As most Swedes, we're not good at taking compliments... I think it's a DNA thing ;)
Do you take a shower before taking the train back lol
love it. just love it. a wonderful descent!
Stunning!
Thank you for all your great videos! The bag you use in Shinkansen in a Fairmean one? I guess you use another bag for the saddle. Does it fit Shinkansen rules? I have a bag that covers all the bike but I'm interested in the Fairmean bag and just want make sure it fits strict Japan train rules.
Saddle cover is included with the Fairmean
12:10 do You mean Avian Canary, since that is the one You presented on the side channel? I thought the Falcon was the stiffer albeit slightly heavier handlebar combo?
Correct
Love that ti bike...
I'm pretty fond of it too!
Just picked up the same bag you got!
I absolutely adore this video 🥰😍❤️
Cool beans! Love the soundtrack at the end. Also trying to grow a cycling channel. Hopefully one day will reach this level.
West Izu Skyline is always a blast.
Great video! You should display the speed.
posting illegal speeds is not a wise move
Enjoying Rides of Japan an I love riding my XC924 Light Bicycle wheelset as well.
I really really want to do this with my Emonda. But Jules said the current version of the firemen rinko bag still does not support a bicycle that can't fully turn the handlebar. I hate my current rinko bag that needs to disassemble front and rear wheels :(
2:34 I actually thought you were taking the time to wipe your computer screen . . . 🤭🤭🤭
You are very fast.
Did you hit Baird Brew Co. for a cold one after?! 🍺
Hello, whar backpack do you use?
Sorry, don’t know the model, it’s like a 10 year old mission workshop backpack
Just lovely
Fantastic! 😍
As I understand Edge 530 RIP. Any arguments why you have moved to 1040?
That was years ago now. Main reason is better battery life and multi-band gps
@@ridesofjapan Quite curious on your map screen. My Edge 840 only allows up to 2 extra data screens, yours looks like it has around 6. Is it a custom Connect IQ field? Looks pretty nice when doing random exploring.
@ryoukokonpaku1575 ruclips.net/video/uYUq3479gc4/видео.html
@@ridesofjapan Thanks! This is definitely something I'd be using a lot.
Build weight weenie bike, rips descent. Haha. Did enjoy this a lot. Also handy tips are handy.
Since you also had the Canary, what made you choose the stiffer and heavier Falcon?
Huh?
@@ridesofjapan On Slayer of Grams you did a weigh-in of the Avian Canary, but in this video you say you're riding the Avian Falcon, which is their stiffer, heavier and more aero cockpit. It seems like an odd choice or did you messed up the names?
@@leg_snapper ah fudge!! You’re right… my dyslectic ass got the names mixed up! Apologies!
Thank you!
You climbn't?
A climbing clip would be even bonusier;-)))
Unless it’s on a pro level, watching people climb is very very boring 😜
What computer mount are you using with the Avian Canary's?
ruclips.net/video/L3tIFRkZO3U/видео.htmlsi=n-yKunyp9gfGlXvT
Yay!
ой йо йой? -)
question: does the Avian Falcon have a noticable flare? (like the gravel handlebars)
5degree flare
Nice use of the corner mirrors
Is that (a.k.a "F**k carbon") Mark riding with you?
Nope, Mark has retired from cycling (not really, but almost😅)
This fella is Darragh the magnificent ✌️
Are you still on your THM clavicula SE? I am giving up on mine... Det blir glapp efter 200 mil och behöver justera preload igen. Blir så trött! Har du upplevt samma? Får spänna hårt för att undvika glappet men då spinner det inte så bra (BBinfinite WS2 ceramic coated). Dränkt skruvarna i loctite 243. Vill gå tillbaka till red axs...
Inga problem här.
Var lite knepigt med Chris King bb när det blev dubbla plast sleeves. Men med THM BB har jag inte haft några problem, dom är .5mm ”smalare”. Så det kan hända att du måste experimentera med plast brickorna (shims) för att få det perfekt med ett annat bb än thm. Från din beskrivning låter det som om NDS ”cone sleeve” sitter för lång ut.
Hate when my brakes fail!
Did you change a handlebar on titanium bike? And what tape is this?
Still same tape as in the build video, most superlight
Bars are avaian canary
Great stuff as usual!!
Cheers mate!
Pretty bicycle
❤
alksjdhfals.dfbuhawbef Shinkansen doesn't stop at Shimbashi!! You're thinkin' Shinagawa!
Doh!!!
