I checked with Aoyama-san at his HiRoad bike shop last week and he told me about his plans for his annual Norikura ride in August.
Details are here, but all in Japanese:

It will be on August 7th and 8th. He said they will take an early train, get there after lunch and then ride in the afternoon. Then an early ride before breakfast on Sunday, followed by more riding until heading back to Tokyo on a late afternoon train. He mentioned that the group will stay at a pension that is owned by a mad keen cyclist. Last year there were 16 signed up and he normally takes about 20. But he would be happy to take more people and arrange some more accommodation.
I am likely to join as it sounds like a fun weekend. And he stated that this is a better option than doing the race.
If you are interested, here is Aoyama-san's email address.
