Bike rental/return while cycling the Shimanami Kaido and Tobishimi Kaido

Accepted answer

Hopefully this gets to you in time. I myself have traveled the Shimanami Kaido, but not the Tobishima Kaido.

After some research, this site(in Japanese) says that you can travel the Tobishima Kaido to the end, Okamurajima, and from there, take a ferry which goes to Imabari. The site says the ferries are bicycle friendly. And of course you can also come from Imabari to Okamurajima, and from there make your way back to the mainland through Tobishima Kaido.

The same cycling site shows that you can take the Sazanami Kaido, a route along the coast of the mainland to get to and from Kawajiri (or Kure) and Onomichi, completing the triangle.

That Cyclonoie site (also happens to be a guest house) is very useful about the area. Maybe looking at it through a translation site could help, though even just the maps alone are very useful.
