Promoting Safety Awareness Through Participation

From September 6 to November 30, 2025, Bikers Paradise, headquartered in Tokyo, will collaborate with Daiozan Saijouji Temple in Minamiashigara City to host the ‘Fall Bikers Paradise Traffic Safety Month.’ This campaign aims to enhance safety consciousness among motorcycle riders as the autumn riding season approaches. The initiative will encourage participants to physically visit shrines and temples, engaging in prayers for safe riding and obtaining motorcycle protection charms.

After safely enjoying their rides, participants can benefit from services offered at Bikers Paradise Minami Hakone and Hakone Kowakien Day Spa, providing a wonderful combination of prayer, blessings, and the joy of motorcycling.

Stunning Motorcycle Prayers at Daiozan Saijouji Temple

Starting August 2025, Daiozan Saijouji has introduced one of Japan's most authentic motorcycle prayer ceremonies. This impressive event, led by eight monks focusing on the safety of riders, includes the distribution of unique motorcycle protection charms. This temple is now recognized as one of the few large temples in Japan specifically geared towards motorcyclists. The inaugural prayer ceremony on August 23 was a grand event attended by the RG Touring Club led by Rayza Ramon RG and 20 general participants.

Every third Saturday of the month at 11:00 AM, the motorcycle prayer ceremony will be held, with this autumn having three special dates: September 20, October 18, and November 15, each accommodating around 50 motorcycles. Participants can register for the prayer ceremony through Daiozan Saijouji Temple’s official homepage.

Benefits for Riders at Bikers Paradise Minami Hakone

To enhance the safety of riders enjoying tours from Minami Ashigara to Hakone, Bikers Paradise Minami Hakone will offer a special 'Charmed Discount.' Riders showing their motorcycle protection charm upon arrival will receive complimentary drinks up to three times during the campaign (note: charms are available for purchase daily at the temple). This offer allows participants to reveal any charm upon payment, except for hand-dripped coffee.

Additionally, with the start of the Traffic Safety Month, Bikers Paradise has set up marker cones in the large parking area for slalom practice, focusing on improving balance and crisis-avoidance skills. Safety is paramount, and riders are reminded to take personal responsibility regarding any accidents or troubles while enjoying the facility.

Special Collaboration with Hakone Kowakien Spa

In partnership with this initiative, Hakone Kowakien's Day Spa, 'Mori no Yu,' will also join in promoting the benefits for riders. When presenting the protection charm, riders can enjoy the bathing fee, usually between 1,500 to 1,800 JPY, at a special flat rate of 750 JPY (a discount of 50 to 58%). This collaboration offers riders a relaxing experience after their safe journeys.
