Kyoto Bicycle Delivery Man

Delivery Bike in Kyoto京都自転車配達

The delivery man makes his rounds in Kyoto on a souped up bicycle.

At least two of the major national delivery companies use bicycles in Kyoto: Sagawa and Yamato.

The city is compact, flat, and automobile parking is at a premium.

It is in short made for cycling.

On a near perfect late spring day, a Sagawa delivery man rode south from the Imperial Palace, down Teramachi, and then turned right onto an east-west street.

His tricycle is tricked out with a plexiglass rain cover, electric engine, and large carrying case.
