Growing up in Japan, Hugh Yamada always had a fascination for bicycles both new and old. But it wasn’t until his first year-long bicycle trip from Hokkaido to Okinawa that he discovered a love for travel and a need to take an ambitious step forward. The Bicycle Baron, as he’s known on YouTube, is planning to travel the entire world by bicycle. Starting in Alaska and ending in Japan.
