We trekked out the the stadium in Northern Nara, the Information Center at Nara said i was the first person (ever) to ask about it! and wished us good luck.

Arriving, it was very much a mans world, many stares, lots of smiles, they instantly loved us!
Watching the last two races the first included a major crash taking out two riders, with one going away on a stretcher. We took somewhat of a photo-documentary of our visit and will post the collection when i arrive back in Melbourne.

Last few days in Osaka/Kyoto, loving it, except Swissotel.
RAMADA!
