The clothes we wear are gradually becoming lighter, aren't they?
At this time of year, you can feel that the lively Mori, Michi, Ichiba (Forest, Road, Market) is drawing near.
Now then!
As we introduced in our previous article, we are encouraging visitors to come to Mori-Michi by bicycle, and we will also be hosting a ride tour.
Please take a look and consider going by bike!
That being said, you might have various anxieties and questions: How do I go by bike? What is the ride tour like? Which ticket should I buy? I'm a bit nervous because I haven't ridden long distances before, etc.
Therefore, we are holding an information session & workshop for those who are considering going to Mori-Michi by bike, regardless of whether you are participating in the ride tour!
BIKE to Mori-Michi Pre-consultation Session / Participant Meeting
Date: April 22 (Sat) 19:00– at Circles
We will go over the flow of the day, required items, and hold a Q&A session. Whether you are participating in the tour or not, if you have purchased or plan to purchase a bicycle-only admission ticket, please feel free to join us. We hope this will not only clear up any doubts but also help us deepen our connections!
Attendance is not mandatory. We will also send information regarding items to bring to participants via email.
No reservation is required for the consultation session. Please come by, as this will be a great opportunity to decide if this is something you can participate in! The "Spice Hour" is also open right next door at Aliba from 17:00 to 20:00, so you can grab some curry too!
We are hosting a "My First Rinko" workshop.
The workshop will cover how to perform *rinko* (transporting a bicycle by train).
While it's great to ride back while soaking in the lingering memories after fully enjoying the event, many people often find themselves too tired for that. In such cases, you can use "rinko"—the method of bringing your bicycle onto a train—to head home.
However, *rinko* requires disassembling your bicycle and packing it into a bag, so practicing before you actually do it will help you stay calm on the day.
We will be teaching how to do this at our sister store, "CULTURE CLUB," so if you have never done *rinko* before or are feeling anxious about it, please join us!
BIKE to Mori-Michi Ichiba "My First Rinko" Workshop
Date and Time: April 23 (Sun) 17:00 (approx. 1.5 hours) Pre-booking required, limit of 3 people
Workshop fee: ¥3,000-
Location: Culture Club
What to bring: Rinko bag, the bicycle you will be using for rinko (We can provide both as teaching materials, but we recommend bringing the gear you will actually be using.)
How to apply: Please send an email via the contact page with the subject line "Regarding the Mori-Michi Ride Tour Workshop" and include the number of participants.
The workshop theme is "My First Rinko." *Rinko* is the method of carrying a bicycle on public transportation like trains or airplanes by storing it in a special bag. We will help you learn the mechanism, tips, and how to avoid and handle potential trouble. Of course, those who are nervous about attempting *rinko* are more than welcome, so let's learn together!
Also, if these dates do not work for you, or if you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out to us separately.
We look forward to seeing you there!
