<br />
According to <a href="http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/09/140917073300.htm">Science Daily</a>, "More than $100 trillion in cumulative public and private spending, and 1,700 megatons of annual carbon dioxide -- a 40 percent reduction of urban passenger transport emissions -- could be eliminated by 2050 if the world expands public transportation, walking and cycling in cities, according to a new report."<br />
<br />
In place of fossil-burning cars, a combination of an increase in public transportation, walking, and cycling in cities would reduce emissions, result in 1.4 million fewer early deaths, and save money.<br />

U.S. Transportation Secretary Foxx Announces New Initiative to Enhance Pedestrian and Bicycle Safety: DOT to launch nationwide safety assessment of key bike/ped routes<br />
<br />
<i>PITTSBURGH – U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx today announced a new initiative to reduce the growing number of pedestrian and bicyclist injuries and fatalities through a comprehensive approach that addresses infrastructure safety, education, vehicle safety and data collection. The 18-month campaign will begin with road safety assessments conducted by U.S. Department of Transportation field offices in every state, and will produce multiple resources to help communities build streets that are safer for people walking, bicycling, and taking public transportation. Secretary Foxx made the announcement at the Pro Walk, Pro Bike, Pro Place conference, the largest gathering of, transportation engineers, city planners and professional bicycle-pedestrian safety advocates and practitioners in the country. </i><br />

<br />
Want to cycle from <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/kyoto-to-nara">Kyoto to Nara</a>? <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/kyoto-to-osaka">Osaka</a>? Or just down to the Katsura River?<br />
<br />
If you live in central or eastern Kyoto, it is a long ride across town to get to the legendary bike path that stretches 40+ km from Arashiyama all the way to Kizu (close to Nara) or Osaka Castle.<br />
<br />
It is possible to do the ride from downtown Kyoto along the <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/kamo-river">Kamo River</a>.<br />
<br />
Cycling along the Kamo River from as far north as Kitayama or, on the Takano River from Shugakuin, all the way to where the river joins the Katsura River can be done.<br />
<br />
Except for one tiny stretch, that means no cars from Kitayama to Osaka Castle, Shugakuin to Nara, central Kyoto to Arashiyama.<br />
<br />
For information, follow the map on this <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/kamo-river-to-katsura-river">page</a>.<br />

<br />
According to <a href="http://blogs.bicycling.com/blogs/thehub/bike-commuting-could-make-you-better-at-your-job?cid=socBL_20140916_31725606" target="_blank">Bicycle Magazine</a>, cycling to work may make you more productive.<br />
<br />
"Researchers at the University of East Anglia and the Centre for Diet and Activity Research (CEDAR) studied 18 years of data on nearly 18,000 British commuters ages 18-65 to arrive at the conclusion, which takes into account factors like income, children, and job and relationship changes.<br />
<br />
In addition to the obvious physical benefits, active commuters felt less stressed and reported that they could concentrate better on work if they commuted by walking or cycling. Cyclists and walkers also showed improvement with regard to other psychological markers, such as feelings of worthlessness, unhappiness, and sleepless nights fueled by nightmares of highway gridlock."<br />
<br />
And thus we <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/bicycle-commuting-in-kyoto">commute in Kyoto</a>, every day, to a bike lot near Demachiyanagi train station. From there it is a 50-minute train ride to work in <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/osaka">Osaka</a> (which probably negates the positive effects of the ride!).<br />

<br />
In October we are doing the Lake Biwa circuit. This will be the second time, and this time we will ride clockwise around Japan's largest lake.<br />
<br />
That means Otsu to Makino, where we hope to spend a night. From there, we head into Oku Biwa (Upper Biwa), then down into Nagahama and back around to Otsu.<br />
<br />
Three friends will join me for the <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/lake-biwa">Lake Biwa circuit</a>.<br />
<br />
Two of us live in Kyoto, so will meet at <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/okazaki-to-nanzenji-temple">Heian Shrine</a>, say a quick prayer to the Cycling Gods - and then head up and over Sanjo into Otsu.<br />
<br />
The other riders live in Tokyo and Shiga. They will join us in Otsu.<br />
<br />
Already, in early September, the weather Gods are shining, and a nip is in the air.<br />
<br />
Mother Biwa awaits.<br />

<br />
August witnessed record rainfall and little sunlight in Japan.<br />
<br />
In Japan as a whole and here in Kyoto, it was a wet month.<br />
<br />
As a result of two large typhoons (#11 and #12) and other storms, there was flooding, a major landslide, and much crop destruction. And on the bike, the month was a drag.<br />
<br />
In Kyoto, rainfall measured 487 mm, which is 3.7 times the normal average rainfall.<br />
<br />
Good riddance summer and welcome to Kyoto's storied <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/kyoto-weather">fall weather</a>.<br />

<br />
One of Japan's main peace, renewable resources, vegetarian, campout, live music, hippie confabs will take place in the mountains of Shiga Prefecture, which is just across from Kyoto, from August 23 until September 7.<br />
<br />
The 10th annual <a href="http://yamauto.jp/index.html" target=" _blank">Yamauta festival</a> features live music, workshops, and lots of family fun.<br />
<br />
The three kanji that make up the title mean "mountain," "water," "person."<br />
<br />
Admission is not free. A pass for the entire two weeks is 6,000 yen (<a href="http://yamauto.jp/ticket2014.html" target=" _blank">4800 if bought online in advance</a>). A day pass is 3,000 yen.<br />
<br />
The easy non-environmental way to get there is drive in your own car. For those not driving, <a href="http://yamauto.jp/access2014.html" target=" _blank">access from Kyoto Station</a> is:<br />
<br />
1. Take the JR Kosei line from Kyoto Station JR Adogawa Station (about 30 minutes).<br />
<br />
2. Change to the Ewaka bus Kutsuki Line and get off at "Kutsuki Shisho Mae - Bus stop"<br />
<br />
3. Take the Takashima community bus from there to "Oisugi bus stop."<br />
<br />
4. It is about 15 minutes on foot from there.<br />
<br />
For the ironmen and women out there, it is 45 km on a bike from the <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/imperial-palace">Imperial Palace</a> in Kyoto. We have done the ride to <a href="http://www.cyclekyoto.com/ohara">Ohara</a>, which takes about 45 minutes, but have not gone beyond that point.<br />
<br />
It would be hard riding on mountain roads, but we may be up for it this year.<br />
