CARAVAN event contents
We hosted various cycling sports as CARAVAN events, allowing many people to experiencethem.
Children's bicycle Class
Kick bike experience/tournament

We held bicycle riding classes for children who rode bicycle forthe first time or who wanted to challenge themselves to ridewithout training wheels. In the classes, children learned not only
how to ride a bicycle but also traffic rules, manners, and othernecessary safety measures in an enjoyable way.

We organized beginner-friendly workshops where participants
could enjoy learning how to ride a kick bike, which helps develop
the balance sense necessary for cycling, and acquire thenecessary safety awareness. Additionally, we held tournaments ina racing format for added enjoyment.
※ Kick bike is a general term for children's pedal-less bicycles
such as Running bikes and STRIDER.

BMX experience

Bicycle tour

We hosted BMX experience sessions, which have gained attention
as an Olympic sport. Participants could experience racing on apump track in the Racing session and learn about the fun andtechniques of BMX riding in the Freestyle session, which included
demonstrations by instructors.

We organized tour rides by bicycle to explore the natural beautyand landmarks of the region. Participants had the opportunity toexperience the joy of cycling. For the implementation, we divided
the participants into small groups and were led by professional
riders to guide them through the course, providing advice on safe
riding practices.

Virtual Cycling

Virtual cycling, which allows people to easily participate in cycling from home regardless of the weather, is an attractive activity. We provided content thatallows participants to experience new ways of enjoying cycling using digital technology. We offered two types of experiences: 'ROUVY,' which is used byprofessional athletes for training and allows for enjoying authentic cycling and sightseeing in Tokyo, and 'idoga VR,' which allows cycling while feeling thewind using a three-screen monitor. These experiences were enjoyed by a wide range of age groups, from children to adults.

Bicycle safety and promotion
AR experience and helmetPromotion of tandem bicycles
wearing promotion

We set up a corner where people could take
AR photos with GCT Ambassadors. During thephoto shoots, they were required to wear
helmets to emphasize the importance ofwearing helmets when riding bicycles. By this,safety awareness is promoted.

Taking into account that tandem bicycle became
possible to be ridden on public roads in Tokyo
from July 2023, we held an exhibition anddemonstration of tandem bicycle at theCARAVAN venue. In addition, GCT Ambassador,
INAMURA Ami, also participated in the event forPR.

Fostering enthusiasm for
GRAND CYCLE TOKYO.

To promote events such as the upcoming
RAINBOW BRIDGE RIDE・MULTISPORTS, and theinaugural THE ROAD RACE TOKYO, we conductedparticipation and attendance promotion activities,
including airing PR videos.
