Japan:6,000 miles on a bicycle

6 months on a bicycle in Japan. Leigh Norrie covered every prefecture between May and November 2005 and lived to write about it. This is dedicated to my favourite song Ramblin'Man by Lemon Jelly which I listened to close to a thousand times during the adventure. Book available on Amazon. 25% goes to the Chiki Foundation. www.chi-ki.org. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=N-KsoA9kQJQ

I read a true short story the other day about an Australian uni student who studied at a Japanese uni, and in his holidays he walked all the ancient routes of Japan, only getting food through begging. This tops that, good work!!! ^_^
