We have created three types of bicycle course maps to promote bicycle use and raise awareness of safe use.

Weekday and Holiday Maps

With the cooperation of Shimano Corporation and the Bicycle Use Promotion Research Group, these maps were created in collaboration with Shizuoka Citizens, Tokoha University Faculty of Law Regional Law and Policy Research and Practice Center, Shizuoka Tourism and Convention Association, Shimizu Mamachari Ride Executive Committee, and Shizuoka Mobility Research Group.
The weekday map was created based on dangerous locations identified in a survey of high school students and dangerous locations designated by the Shizuoka Prefectural Board of Education, to promote bicycle use during commuting to work or school, and as a near-miss map for users. The holiday map features seven courses that take you around the city's famous sites and historical sites through leisurely rides and workshops.

Miho Map

In order to create a bicycle-specific map that introduces the best view spots, shops, and cuisines in the Miho area that can only be reached or seen by bicycle, the "Miho Bicycle Conference" was launched, chaired by the president of the Miho District Union Residents' Association, and created by "local stakeholders," "Tokai University (School of Marine Science and Social Environment Department)," "Tokai University Shoyo High School," "Miho no Matsubara Future Center," and others.
