À propos de cette course
The JBCF 1st Omachi Onsenkyo Road Race is a professional road cycling event held on a special course within Omachi Onsenkyo, a hot-spring area in Omachi City, Nagano Prefecture. This JPT race operates under the All Japan Business Cyclist Federation, with the Kita Alps Promotion Association serving as co-organizer. The professional race commences at 11:30 on a summer race day. Spectators are welcome to watch without charge, making the event a focal point for both the JBCF peloton and local visitors in the onsen district.
The broader Omachi Cycle Festa incorporates a brief grass time trial on the same special course. This approximately 1 km straight-line effort is intended for riders with prior race experience and is open to participants from junior high school age upwards, using either road bikes or time-trial bikes. A complimentary bicycle safety session is also conducted in Omachi Onsenkyo. During this session, mechanics inspect bicycles brought by attendees, and younger children may participate when accompanied by a guardian. Food trucks are available at the venue, and traffic around the course is managed for several hours, with staff facilitating crossings and certain parking areas restricted until the conclusion of the races.
