Shima no Cycling Miyakojima
シマのサイクリング宮古島24°48′ N 125°17′ EBike rentalMiyako-jima
Shima no Cycling Miyakojima rents Tokyobike Sport road bikes for ¥4,000 a day and 8-speed cross bikes for ¥3,000 a day from central Hirara when you book two or more days ahead (October 2026 price list), with no delivery. Road bikes go only to riders who can change a tube.
This small Hirara shop used to trade as Rental Cycle Plus2do, and it keeps only two road bikes in size S and three in M. They're chromoly Tokyobike Sports on 650×28C tires with a 50/34 chainset and an 11–30 cassette, gearing that makes light work of the climb onto the Irabu Bridge and the rolling cane roads to the east. Booking two days ahead saves ¥1,000 a day over a day-before or same-day booking.
The rules suit riders who look after themselves. Renters who can fix a flat get a gauge pump, levers and a tube at no charge, and the shop asks you to bring your own helmet, shoes and pedals. Bikes are handed over and returned at the shop. It has no parking and won't store bags, so come by taxi or bus and leave luggage at your hotel or in the airport lockers. If you call a taxi, the shop suggests asking for the main gate of Hirara Daiichi Elementary School.
