Looks great, just back from a tourist holiday in Japan and now want to take my bike over and cycle the length of it, so have been searching for blogs & info.

Thank you for sharing your trip with great insights and photos. I have tickets booked to do this with a buddy in October (north to south), with the optimistic plan of doing it in 26-27 days. Very interested to see your route. (reposting comment because i don't know how substack works and i had a weird name for some reason)

That is a great summary. I have enjoyed reading your updates and am frankly amazed at your pace. Especially since it was only a little more than six months ago that my old college roommate and I (he on a penny farthing) made a similar trip (albeit half the distance in the same amount of time), I could really relate to some of your experiences. I look forward to your upcoming video(s).

Thanks Mark! Would love to see some photos of the penny farthing, can’t imaging it on the hills!

The vertical elevation- both going up and coming down - was a challenge.
