GREAT EARTH Ishigakijima Ride (c) Deporte A long ride event held all over Japan, from Hokkaido in the north to Okinawa in the south, the Great Earth series. Held every year in many areas, it has received the support of many cyclists as an event that maximizes the potential of the area such as scenery and gourmet food. It was 11 years ago that such Great Earth was born. This ride, which was held on Ishigaki Island in Okinawa Prefecture, is the source. It will be a two-day ride to enjoy this island, which is one of the best resort islands in Japan, with direct flights from each airport in Honshu, about an hour by plane from the main island of Okinawa. This year, the event will be held earlier than usual in January, and the date will be moved to the end of October. The first sunset cruising party will be held on the 27th, the first day of the tournament. On the beautiful sea of Ishigaki Island, it will be a time to cultivate the spirit of the next day's ride with Okinawa's specialty, Awamori, while being shaken by a luxurious cruiser. The eve of the festival, which is lively by the tournament navigator Yui Kataoka and others, is a great success with many participants every year. It should be a very satisfying night with a taste of Okinawan gourmet food. Be careful not to drink too much! ?? The day after his cruising party, where the eve of the festival will be held again this year, is a long-awaited long ride on Ishigaki Island. This year, there are three types of courses: a 125km long course, a 90km middle course, and a 60km short course. The basic course is all the same, and the distance of the course is determined by the turning point. Therefore, it can be said that the layout can be relieved even if you feel unwell. The start is Funakura Children's Park on the south side of Ishigaki Island. From there, go around Nagura Bay, which is located in the western part of the island, to Yarabudake, the westernmost point of Ishigaki Island. Around the foot of Mt. Yarabudake, a detour to Kabira Ishizaki. From there, head east. Pass the Yonehara campsite, which is the turning point of the short course, and head toward the northeast. Yaeyama soba that will behave as a serving at a shop that starts aiming for Hirakubozaki Frappe that uses plenty of home grown Guava Enjoy the downhill as if you were jumping into Ibaruma Bay (c) Return of the Deporte Middle Course Crossing the Ibaruma Bay, which is the point, we aim for Hirakubozaki, the northernmost tip of Ishigaki Island. There are also ranches where Ishigaki beef is grazing along the way, and you should be able to enjoy the spectacular view of the breathtaking azure sea and lush grasslands. Although there is no big pass throughout, it is an outer road of the island, so small ups and downs continue. There are some slopes with a considerable slope, but the distance is short, so it shouldn't be that hard. In addition, each course will have an aid station where you can enjoy gourmet food made with local ingredients. Last year, Okinawan gourmet foods such as the famous Yaeyama soba, guava frappe, and onisasa were served. It will be one of the pleasures to see what kind of taste is waiting for this year. Also, this year, the "Bugarino" (finish party) at the finish point will be revived. It will be a party that celebrates each other's good fights while being wrapped in a sense of accomplishment after running.
