Tour de Osumi 2011 has three courses. “A” course is 110km long with more than 1600m vertical climb. It’s for the experienced cyclists, but it has very beautiful views!
They started at 8:40 from Kirishimagaoka of Kanoya and were supposed to come back by 16:00.
Three Japanese top-level pro cyclists joined the cycle event. In a way, I, a hobby cyclist, had a great feeling to get passed by them.
I tried to chase one of them during an uphill section. But I was distanced after chasing him for about 300m.
The participants enjoyed delicious local foods at every aid stations.

What was the most wonderful was the cheer from spectators and the hospitality provided by staff members!
