The ride begins at Shin-Fuji Station, tires humming as the foothills of Fuji slide into view. Electric assist eases the first climbs; the air smells of river-silt and pine. Guides steer a small group past coastal dunes and spring-fed streams, stopping where lava-formed terraces bend toward the sea and where a low bridge frames a possible, often cloud-hidden, silhouette of Mount Fuji.
