Hyogo Kita-Harima Local Experience Ride (Kasai City / Taka Town) (兵庫県北播磨ローカル体験ライド（加西市／多可町）)

This guided ride of about 36 km for junior high school age and over runs through Kita-Harima countryside from Taka to Kasai, starting and finishing at the lodging and sightseeing facility Edel Sasayuri in Taka. Stops include Nagomi no Sato Yamato, where riders make their own paper in the local papermaking tradition, and a lunch at the Kasai farm restaurant Tsuchi-Ichi-Nanoka Yatai featuring Banshu Hyakunichi-dori chicken and Kasai game meat. The ride ends at the long-established Takahashi soy sauce brewery for its signature soy sauce soft-serve ice cream. Veteran local guide riders look after anxious cyclists, and a support vehicle carries luggage to the finish free of charge. Before the start, Daichi Togao, manager of the professional Coraggio Kawanishi Cycling Team, gives a short clinic. A commemorative gift from Kasai and Taka is handed out at the finish.
