About

SHONO CYCLE serves Shikoku from 2-chome-1-4 Tagacho in Takamatsu, Kagawa, on the island's northern coast. The business hires out bicycles, making it a practical starting point for exploring the surrounding area on two wheels.

Visitors rate it at 4.6 out of 5 across 21 reviews, a strong result for a small operation. Matsuyama, Takamatsu, Kochi, Tokushima, Dogo Onsen, Naruto, Uwajima and Shimanto are the main towns and sights across Shikoku, and the shop sits in Takamatsu, which is linked to the mainland by rail and ferry. Details are published at http://cycleshikoku.com/.

The shop is a bike rental business, so expect to collect and return cycles rather than buy them, and bring identification for the hire.

Japanese is the national language, written with kanji characters plus the hiragana and katakana syllabaries, so English signage is not guaranteed everywhere. Typhoons approach Japan mainly between August and September, most often striking the southern islands, which is worth checking before planning a cycling trip. Japanese meals commonly centre on rice served with miso soup, pickles and grilled fish, a reliable option after a day in the saddle.
