Eligibility

For safety management, it is mandatory to entry with a group of 3 or more people - For individual entrants, the event organizer will be sent a separate questionnaire after entry, the results of which will be used to set groups upon the riding skill level and speed.

The Long Course and the Extra Long Course participants may have a large difference in riding speed and skill, which may cause danger or hinder event operation, so we decided to allow solo rides.

If you wish to run individually, please inform us of your wish to run individually in the questionnaire for group matching that will be sent to you at a later date, and please follow the safety management methods separately stipulated by the Management Office.

* Men and Women over 16 and over (High school students must participate with their parents)

* Riders who can prepare their own bike gears.

Course

We will be sharing the course details with participants on the event day, to add an element of adventure. However, we will share clues gradually by sharing the inspection reports, checkpoints/feed station locations, ground conditions etc so you can prepare for the event.
