One thing to keep in mind:
Yodogawa river cycling road has a couple dozen barriers between RBRJ Osaka and Kyoto city proper (over a 30km stretch). While it is a traffic-free cycle road, it can be a bit cumbersome at times to clip in and out along the way. Don’t let this stop you from enjoying the flat but lovely scenery!
Pick your rental cycle up in Osaka, cruise up Yodogawa and choose your adventure in Kyoto:
