Tour Grading
Easy
Cycling 3-5 hours, covering 25-35 miles/day. Easy cycling over mainly flat terrain, can be
enjoyed by anyone with a reasonably active life.
Moderate
Cycling 25-35 miles a day over gently rolling terrain. Some hills but you will be rewarded
with splendid views and down hill free wheeling. Can be enjoyed by active people. In most
cases you will be able to shorten or extend the route.
Challenging
Cycling 30-45 miles a day. Designed for people with cycling experience who enjoy a mixed
terrain and who gain exhilaration from reaching the top of the hill for spectacular views.
For those of you who prefer travelling on two wheels we have adapted some of our finest
self-guided walking routes for cyclists.
These tours offer independence, flexibility and choice, travel any day you like, set your
own pace, you are not limited by the constraints of group travel, or build in extra days
if you want to. The principle is the same as with our walks. We book your accommodation,
move your baggage each day from hotel to hotel, and supply you with a bike suitable for
the terrain.
You are also equipped with maps and details of what to see along the route. Often there is
a choice of rides each day so that you can choose exactly how energetic you want to be.
It's a great way to explore the back roads and scenery of Britain and Europe.
