Hey guys, so I've been working out a route for my month long bicycle tour of Japan and this is what I've come up with so far. Looking for input on the route, places to check out, things I might be missing or inexpensive transit options I can use to trim the fat. Don't really want to be stressing about falling behind on my schedule so much that I can't stop and enjoy places and I'd like to fit in a rest day in Kyoto and one in Osaka. Right now I'm planning to take at least one ferry (kitakyushu-Osaka) but I was thinking the right rail line would help me cut down time in some other areas too! (Shinkansen is just too expensive and unfortunately I won't use the train nearly enough to justify a JR pass)

Check out the map I've been working on:
