Hello there,
We are pleased to present you the second edition of the Japanese Odyssey. It is a self-supported ultra cycling event, with a simple ethos: the clock never stops, no mandatory route, and no private support.
The event will start from Tokyo on September 17, 2016. Entrants will have to reach Osaka within a 14 day time limit. They may take the route of their choice, as long as they go up the 11 mandatory climbs. Those imposed detours will take the riders over 2400 km in various regions among which the Japanese Alps and the island of Shikoku.
The second edition of the Japanese Odyssey is about taking the entrants up a series of famous climbs in Japan. But it is also an attempt to place them in touch with the traditions, customs and culture of the country. It is an attempt to make them "breathe" Japanese air.
