Distance travelled: 84km, Altitude gained: 400m
Giant is a well-known and popular manufacturer in Japan, and their wide range of products, suitable for both leisurely rides in sightseeing spots and hard races, is the reason why they are a favorite brand of roadies all over the world. This time, Tsucchi's old acquaintance Mr. Shibui, a Giant staff member, will guide us on the best course in Kanagawa, an attractive riding area in the Kanto region, and we will actually ride two Giant models to compare them on a perfect 2-day/1-night trip.

The second day is sea and mountains. Enjoy the terrain and nature of Kanagawa. We enjoyed riding along the coast of Enoshima Island while watching the morning waves, and compared two different types of bikes at the popular Yabitsu Pass. The course, rich in ups and downs and changes, was different from the route full of sightseeing spots on the first day, and it was a day to learn about the depth of Kanagawa.
