Some of the news coverage here has shown people cycling into the devastation that used to be their home town, searching for loved ones. It's heart-breaking. I did wonder why some of the bikes looked quite so shiny new.
I'm not sure but is cycling a fairly common way of getting around anyway in Japan? I know that my brother and sister-in-law both cycle to work in Tokyo and for leisure too.
Thank you for the link.

oh yes!! take a look at the bike "parking" lot. This is a pretty common site, people bike to the train station as part of their commute.
