Our premium 2-day, 1-night fully supported Panaracer “GRAVELKING” Experience – Okunikko Gravel Adventure has come to a fantastic close!
Riders rolled out on a wide range of unique bikes, all equipped with the latest GRAVELKING tires, and explored the hidden gravel roads deep in the Okunikko backcountry before unwinding in some of Japan’s finest hot springs.
The weather kept things interesting—from unexpected blue skies that beat the forecast to dense fog and light rain later on—giving everyone the perfect opportunity to experience the confidence and versatility of the new GRAVELKING tires in a variety of conditions.
Of course, the ride itself was only part of the adventure.
Sharing the journey, stories, and plenty of laughs along the way with fellow riders is what these trips are all about.
