Cycle Kyushu for charity
9 days
Follow their nine-day, roughly 900-km cycle around Kyushu: set off from Fukuoka, ride through mountainous roads and coastal scenery, use the ferry when needed, keep going through rain and mechanical failures, and finish at a station with McDonald’s as the reward. The distinctive part is cycling the route for charity while fundraising along the way.
