Unsupported
The Japanese Odyssey is an unsupported cycle adventure. It means that the organisation doesn’t provide any support, and that private support or assistance is prohibited. Once you cross the starting line, you are truly on your own.
We want to ensure equal opportunity for all riders, either local or non-Japanese. This means pre-arranged support are not allowed. You may eat, sleep, and service your bike at places also available to the other riders or at commercial shops.
