You can ride a bicycle across six Japanese islands. 43 miles of ocean below you. Six giant suspension bridges built specifically for cyclists. You start in Hiroshima. You finish in Ehime. Along the way: sleepy fishing villages, lemon farms, soft-serve ice cream stands at every port, the sea breeze in every direction. Not a race. Not a tour. Just you, a bike, and an entire chain of islands the country built a road over so anyone could see them. It might be the best ride on Earth.
