Kenichi (Ken) Kawamura, Founder and Guide Konnichiwa! Cycling Japan is proud to offer you the real Japan experience with great cycling. Since 2003, I have been guiding road cycling and mountain biking trips throughout Japan. As I’m a year-round cyclist who rides for work and for leisure, I’m confident to give you the best service from the cyclist’s point of view. I was born in a bike shop and inherited the DNA and the bike mechanical skills from my father and grandfather. My passion for riding a bike and playing with bikes is in my blood. I also spent three years in total in Hawaii as a windsurfer, and experienced “mana”, the spiritual energy of nature in the Hawaiian culture. It drove me to start a career as an outdoor guide. When I returned to Japan, I rediscovered so much beauty in our culture and nature. I was convinced then, this was what I want to do; explore Japan on a bike and share this beautiful place with cyclists from all over the world! |

Issy, Guide l had been working as a designer for a car company for a long time. As I was working as a designer, I enjoyed a variety of outdoor sports whenever I had spare time. I believe that we can have much more fun in the nature when we use the mechanical equipments well. I have learnt all my mechanical skills by playing and having fun with them. When I was designing something, I used to look for an inspiration through the beauty of nature. As I was becoming 50 years old, I realized that I wanted to discover and experience more in life with bicycles, and that's when I decided to be a cycling guide. I'm moving to Hokkaido to broaden the possibilities for the future. Curiosity and action are the eternal vitality. I am the oldest in the company, however I believe ages don't matter to have good time. I am excited to show you and help you discover the best experience in Japan. |
