Welcome to Day 1 of an epic 5-day motorcycle adventure through Kumamoto Prefecture, as part of my Project 47 journey—riding through all 47 prefectures of Japan on my trusty Honda GB350s! 🏍️
In this episode, I start my morning leaving a peaceful campsite and hit the road solo, carving through stunning mountain passes and scenic sakura-filled parks. Here’s what you’ll see in this episode:
🌸 Ride down a perfect mountain road surrounded by cherry blossoms
🌋 Head north towards Mt. Aso, Japan’s largest active volcano
🛣️ Navigate the narrow and challenging Route 445—not for the faint of heart!
🌸 Cruise through Kujukumagari Takamori Natural Park, lined with sakura
💧 Visit the serene Shirakawa Springs at the base of Mt. Aso
🏍️ Check out a giant motorcycle statue
🔥 Wind down at a campsite, where I meet a fellow rider and YouTuber
👥 Special guest: こまくさCAMP — check out his awesome camping content!
📍This journey blends motorcycle touring, solo camping, scenic landscapes, and the real connections made along the way.

This was really cool man, whilst a stranger saying it might not mean much, but sorry about your wife. Illness is always hard to manage. This video seems like a slight shift to not just the were in your travels, but including more on the who. I like it! People generally are all really nice up close. Can’t wait for the next one ☺️
Another great ride. Loving all the cherry blossoms and even the early spring trees since here we only have 2 seasons. Wet and dry. Haha
Amazing video. I discovered your channel few days ago and it is already one of my favourites ❤
So good of Mr Araki to give you the ocarina — you both have the right idea how to live life.
As always great vid!
You have awesome sweater ! 😋
