In 2001, we directed the eco-transportation and bicycle initiatives of the Environmental Policy Department’s "Miyako Agenda 21 Forum." of Kyoto City. 3000 copies of our pocket-sized Kyoto Bicycle Route Map were published in 2001. Derived from our first map, it charts four suggested cycling courses and plots hotels that welcome bikes, repair and rental shops, bicycle etiquette, hospital locations (in case of accident), public toilets and bicycle parking lots.

This map was made as a part of the pilot project of Miyako-no-Agenda Forum to promote the sustainable transportation system of Kyoto city. Our activities led to start the Velo Taxi service and one coin bus (=¥100) in the central area. Rental bikes delivering service called KCTP (They deliver your favorite bikes to the place you like and you can leave bikes anywhere you like) also started by the influence of this map. KCTP was given the annual grand prize of Kyoto venture business in 2002. Some hotels always prepare free bikes for tourists as well since then. And from 2005 Kyoto city has started to examine a settingup of LRT.
また、天然デザインフォーラムは、COP3の年から京都市のエコ交通問題に力を入れており、２００１年、市の環境政策課「京のアジェンダ21フォーラム」のエコ交通、自転車チームの活動をディレクションした。その成果の一部として、同年、ポケットサイズの「京都自転車ルートマッ--左京区主要部」を３０００部制作した。この地図は、最初の京都グリーンマップを基に４つの自転車観光お勧めルートを始め、レンタサイクル店、自転車の利用できるホテル、修理スポット、自転車マナーなどを紹介している。
