My brother's heading back out to Japan and the mrs & I intend to abuse his hospitality something chronic.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for hiring a bike in that neck of the woods? I've no idea where he's going to be based, but I've a feeling it'll be Tokyo when we go.

We've both got full bike licences, but I understand we might need to get an international driving licence as well, so any tips on that score would be grand.

Cheers,
Rich

silky666: He rode amazingly well considering his bike is the weight of a small van and had slicks on.

You'll need an International Driving Permit from here: https://www.theaa.com/getaway/idp/ - cheap and easy!

As for bike hire, no idea! Smile
