Our Endeavor Commences

As I sit on the couch here at home, the excitement builds.  I have spent the day packing and getting all my gear ready.  24 hours from now I will be mounting my bike for the longest multi-day ride I have ever attempted.  860 Miles over 10 days is nothing to sneeze at.  From just south of Mt Fuji to Cape Sata.  


For lodging we will be spending two nights camping out and the third in a traditional Japanese Ryokan (Hostel).  Clean up will be accomplished each day at a nearby onsen or sento.  


This will be a fully loaded ride.  Alex and I are at the more traditional end of the spectrum with racks/panniers; Kyle will be towing a B.O.B. trailer.  


Here are the links to the route for each day of the trip.  Included on the map is the hotel and/or camp site location.
