Long story short – this is how many locals protect bicycles in Ishigaki (they don’t say a prayer…). In other places in Japan, they use a simple lock.
I use a simple lock also in Ishigaki 😀 i am from Latvia after all. It’s a habit. In Latvia, your bicycle is never safe. NEVER and nowhere. #japan #safety #short #shorts
Many will be shocked. But let me show you how we protect bicycles in Japan. So you arrive to the place, you put the bicycle, wave goodbye and go.
