OUR TEAM

Tetsuya

Tetsuya was born and raised in Tokyo. While working at a foreign-affiliated IT company or working in an import business, he traveled to over 40 countries. His passion to reproduce the bicycle tourism that he experienced around the world led him to Nasu, Tochigi. After moving to Nasu, he established Ride Experience Inc., a company specialized in bicycle touring, with his enthusiastic local friends. Having been a cyclist for more than 20 years, his love for roads and paths is incomparable. He takes great pleasure in biking to explore attractive routes, and from narrow mountain roads to gravel paths, no one in the area knows more than him. He also loves music, cooking, craft beer and local sake.

Message from Tetsuya:
“Bikes are a grown-up’s adventure gear. They turn roads and landscapes that you blindly pass by car into the most memorable, exciting experiences. Join us for an adventure to find the Japan that no one has seen before!”
