A rider with experience touring around Japan twice shares ten hand-picked touring roads and spots in Fukuoka Prefecture. Drawing on extensive riding experience, it's a practical guide to the rewarding roads and worthwhile stops in Kyushu's gateway prefecture.
Fukuoka is Kyushu's gateway, so it tends to get passed through. But unfold a map and look closely, and there are plenty of satisfying roads within the prefecture too. A top-10 list from someone who's circled Japan twice is trustworthy. Tasting local specialties at a rest stop while thinking about where to ride next -- it makes me want to plan a Kyushu trip like that. Crossing by ferry is another kind of fun too.

Are there mountain passes near Fukuoka that you can ride to even from the city center?
Sounds like there are some pretty satisfying roads to ride even within an hour of the city center.
It's just one rider's personal picks, so it might not cover things like congestion or seasonal factors.
Curious whether classics like Yabakei or Mt. Hikosan made it into the 10 spots.
Fukuoka lets you enjoy both the Genkai Sea coast and the mountains, so it's a prefecture with real riding substance.
Roads picked by someone who's circled Japan twice carry a whole different level of credibility — I want to use this as a reference.
Having circled Japan twice already puts them at walking-encyclopedia levels of experience.
