This is a short version of the "Nagato Blue Ocean Ride with Akiyoshidai," the 4th edition of which was held in November last year and attracted over 400 entries.
This year's Blue Ocean Ride is a 59-km course that offers a view of the Sea of Japan that lives up to its name, as well as a superb view of the Motonosumi Shrine, a shrine with a spectacular view that could not be included in this event due to traffic volume, and the Aburaya area and Mukozugu Peninsula in Nagato City, along with an aid menu. On the return trip, participants will board a special "Cycle Train" from JR Hitomaru Station and enjoy a special time to enjoy the scenery from the train window along with their bicycles.
Guest riders on the day will be Yuyu Shimizu, Junsuke Miyamoto, and Shohei Yasumoto from the Yamaguchi Branch of the Japan Cycle Riders Association.
