Hi Leonard. I rode most of these over a 1200km solo bike packing trip earlier this year. Shibu pass, Haruna descent and the utsukushigahara are wild. You nailed this video. Stunning work.
That was hands down THE BEST road riding in Japan video I've ever seen. You picked the most amazing climbs to ride and have reignited my plan to visit Japan to ride. We were supposed to go in 2020 but COVID hit and one off the group passed away. Maybe 2025 is the year!
I'm Japanese, as one of Japanese, the video was difinitely increadible. I enjoyed your great video like a movie. If you can go to the country, I recommend you to go to Gifu Pref that is my home place. Thank you for your great videos and your great effort !!
Well done, both the climbing efforts and beautifully documenting it! Being lucky to live here, I can’t wait to get on my next adventure in this beautiful country. Inspiring
@@oscarkallenbach9131 thank you, Oscar! Lucky indeed! There are so many places to explore and spring is just a few months away! Hope you have fun in your adventures!
@@RindoRob wow! Thank you, Rob! The resources you made available are gold for people like me! Hope to be able to explore more like you! Ride safe!! 🙏🙏🙏
I just went on a 9k walk. Made some lunch and said to myself: I want to sit and watch to cool story/adventure. This popped up first. Absolutely wonderful film!!! 🎉
Wow, for Japanese people🇯🇵, Shibu Touge is a place that we go by car or motorbike😂. It’s very impressed to see foreigner went there by bicycle😊. I wish you enjoy my country more and more.
Greetings from David, Kampar,Perak. I am 72 and still loves to cycle. Your 9-days documentary,is one of the Best so far. Clear, Informative and well blended with the backg round music. Tq for sharing! Amazing!
@@davidchan5424 hey David! Thank you so much for your kind words!! Really appreciate it. Wow, 72 years strong, sir. My mom's from Perak too! I hope you will still continue to cycle for many years! 🙏☺️
Fantastic video! and some truly incredibly climbs in there. Looks like you got pretty great weather throughout as well. I did a S-N of Japan earlier in the year with a couple of buddies (just uploaded my own video), and the countryside climbs through the Kiso Valley (Tsumago-juku etc.) was my favourite part. An epic place to go for a ride, and the food feels so well deserved. All the best
@@OscarBoyd hey Oscar! Thanks for your kind words! Wow, that looks like an adventure! I'll definitely hop over to watch in the next few days when I'm on the trainer! 💪👍

@@sisberrycinematographystudio thanks buddy! It was a great experience! Made me really curious and want to explore the country more. I subbed to your channel. Love your work! 👍👍👍😊
Hi Leonard, your videos have been big inspirations for me to start creating my video. I want to say thank you. I can feel we have some similarities. I hope to see you TaiwanKOM someday. I probably go next year at some point.
@@CyclingMotive hey Ryo! Thank you so much for your kind words. I just subbed and watched your video and yea, I think we are indeed very likeminded people 🤣🤣🤣 I'm naturally introverted as well haha! And yea! I'm intending to do the TW KOM again. But I need to be stronger. I have a target timing in mind and another year of training might just do it. The standard TW KOM route hasn't recovered from the earthquake. It might be good to keep a lookout for updates from the organisers! I'll share when I'm ready to take on the challenge! Hope to be able to see you there! 🙏🙏🙏 Ride safe!!! 🫡💪
Don't know how I come across your video. Always wanted to cycle in Japan but never found the right opportunity (yet). Nice editing and great vlog! Thank you.
Beautifully shot Leonard! I remember getting emotional arriving at lake Haruna being an Initial D fan for many years. Did you stop at the 33rd corner of the Irohazaka 😄? Next time definitely take the Usui pass between Nagano and Gunma with it’s 182 turns! One of my highlights cycling across Japan.
@@jscheers hey Joachim! Thanks for your kind words!! Sounds like you had an epic adventure cycling in Japan! Usui Pass.. I'm gonna note this down. I feel like I'm just scratching the surface of what's there in Japan. 🤯 Hahaha, you mean.. if I jumped at the 33rd corner? I haven't! 🤣🤣🤣
Woah! This is probably one of the most visually stunning videos I've seen of bike touring. the little elevation graphics for the mountains, the beautiful drone shots, and the classy transition screens between all the days. INCREDIBLE. Also what kind of bike did you use for this tour?
@@lambalike hey buddy!! Thanks for the very kind words! I really appreciate it ❤️ I've been bringing my road bike for trips like this quite a few times already. It's a Winspace T1500D I built. Nothing special, just a typical modern day carbon road bike haha 😊
Super great video, loved watching it from the beginning to the end!! Did you film all the plans from your bike with your phone ? How was it attached to your bike? Hope to see more videos from you soon!
@@robinhuber8002 thank you for the kind words, Robin! Mostly with the GP12. I have it mounted on the handlebar using the tape mount. Then I just place it wherever I can to capture the ride in different angles 👍
There are some great rides here around kansai as well, around kobe osaka, and even across the bay to awajishima. You won't find the heights of Nagano, but the landscape is more human and cultured. I am surprised you did not go up Norikura, the highest road in Japan, but I guess it probably too far east for your itinerary.
@@iamkifo hey, my friend! This was my first time cycling in Japan so I thought it would be better to stick to Rob's guide. Also, I really enjoy the mountains a lot. I don't have that here in Singapore 🥲 Norikura was on my list but the roads weren't opened in May. I'll definitely do that next time! Thanks for the suggestion! I'll definitely research about the Kansai region. The possibilities are endless in Japan and I would love to keep exploring! 🙏
Hey Leonard, thanks for your stunning work! That was really a pleasure to watch! May I ask, if you had any problems stowing your bike in the hotels in Japan and Korea? Did they allow to take it to your room? Would love to see a biking film from Singapore.
@@uli4735 hey buddy! Thanks for your kind words! Glad you enjoyed it 😊 Yes, no problem at all. Except for a hotel in Jeju. Even then, they were very understanding and let me in. Wow, I seldom ride outside here in Singapore. Haha, it's too crowded!
Amazing video! I loved every second of it. I have one question, which template from where did you use for the transitions? (The whiteish background with the picture and name of the ride) I’d love to use it too.
@@gerson4729 thank you! It's not a template, I created it haha Every transition uses the same background image, then I just used a different photo and text over it! Lastly, I applied some positioning keys on them! That's all! 😊

@@Funlady8890 hey! Apart from the driving side being different to the US, you should be fine! It's very safe and I find the drivers to be very mannered in the countryside.

I avoid spending time during dawn and dusk in deep forested areas. There are studies that suggest that hornets are more aggressive towards darker clothings, so I avoided that as well. Hope that helps haha! 😊
Wow that's so amazing. Last year I took the bike only train from Tokyo (bbbase) and rode in Chiba. The year before I did the shimanami kaido. I need to check out the Shibu pass. Question... How was the driving in Japan... especially on highway with the etc card ?
@@sanynava hey Sany! Nice one! I've heard so much about Shimanami Kaido! Driving was great! Even the furthest location was always just 2H+ away. Lots of rest stops along the way as well.
