It was a long road.....but I did it! - Kenji - 08-16-2014
Hey guys! How are you doing? Kenji is back!
I came back from a long trip by bike. I started from Saitama. Then through Tokyo, Kanagawa, Sizuoka(Mt.Fuji is there), Aichi, etc...
Well, see this map. This red line is the road where I ran. Only by bike. No Plane, no trains, no automobiles.

The final destination was Sakurajima-island in Kagoshima prefecture.(below)

This stone statue is Japanese famous rock singer, Tsuyosi Nagabuchi. He was born in Kagoshima.
When I return from Kagoshima to Saitama I used bullet trains. Oh, I really tired....:yuck:
I took many many photos, maybe....3000 or 5000? If I have my time I'll share some photos on this thread.

You sure are one dedicated cyclist, much kudos to you. How long did it take to complete the trip?

This trip was the part of south, so maybe next time I'll go to north.
