Very sunny with clear skies for New Years Day in Tokyo, and many people outside going to the Jinja shrines for Hatsumode, the first visit to the shrines to wish for a good year. A nice view to see for the first time in a few years since COVID kept people indoors this past few New Years. Unfortunately, the Noto region was hit with a big earthquake in the evening o New Years Day, with some major damage in the area. Praying for the people in the region. <img alt="240101fuji.jpg" src="http://cycle-tokyo.cycling.jp/weblog/240101fuji.jpg" width="720" height="480" />

<img alt="200409stayhometokyo.jpg" src="http://cycle-tokyo.cycling.jp/weblog/archives/images/200409stayhometokyo.jpg" width="420" height="236" /> As a group that usually welcomes everyone to visit and enjoy cycling in Tokyo, this is an unfortunate post. The widespread of the Corona Virus is growing in Tokyo, on the verge of overshoot. On 7 April Prime Minister Abe proclaimed a state of emergency from 8 April to 6 May for Tokyo and the prefectures of Kanagawa, Saitama, Chiba, Osaka, Hyogo and Fukuoka. It is strongly suggested that visiting Tokyo be avoided. People already in Tokyo should avoid meeting in groups and visiting places where people gather. Please be conscious about keeping social distance in order to prevent spreading or receiving the virus. You, or the person next to you may be a virus carrier. Many shops and facilities will be closed following the issuing of the State of Emergency. <strong><u>Cycle Tokyo! will postpone all guided rides until it is deemed safe.</u></strong> Your understanding is appreciated. Riding the bike is good to keep fit during this <strong>#stayhome #staysafe</strong> time. Keep cycling around the neighborhood by yourself....NO GROUP RIDING. Again, please stay safe and healthy, and hope we'll be able to ride together around Tokyo again ! <ul> <li><a href="https://stopcovid19.metro.tokyo.lg.jp/en">Tokyo Metropolitan Goverment "Tokyo COVID-19 Information" (EN) - https://stopcovid19.metro.tokyo.lg.jp/en</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.japan-guide.com/news/alerts.html">JapanGuide.com "Travel Alerts and Disaster Updates" - https://www.japan-guide.com/news/alerts.html </a></li> <li><a href="https://www.japantimes.co.jp/liveblogs/news/coronavirus-outbreak-updates/">The Japan Times "COVID-19 news updates" - https://www.japantimes.co.jp/liveblogs/news/coronavirus-outbreak-updates/ </a></li> </ul> <a href="http://cycle-tokyo.cycling.jp/weblog/archives/images/visitor_hotline-2.jpg"><img alt="visitor_hotline-2.jpg" src="http://cycle-tokyo.cycling.jp/weblog/archives/images/visitor_hotline-2.jpg" width="420" height="255" /></a>
