Each bike is customized to your specifications, ready when you arrive. Our bikes
are all late-model, hand-built, hybrid, Cannondale (or
similar) bikes, long on comfort and durability, designed
specifically for us. The hybrid, or cross bike means
just that - it's a cross between a mountain bike and
a road bike. It gives you the best of both worlds, it's
lightweight, strong and able to handle most cycling conditions
while being more comfortable than a touring bike or mountain
bike.
The
handlebars are upright like a mountain bike. This gives
you a more comfortable riding position. The tires are similar
to a mountain bike tire but the tread is designed for both
pavement and gravel. Each bike comes with removable toe
clips as standard. There are plenty of gears to handle
even the steepest hills, should you wish to climb them.
When booking, we ask for certain leg measurements so we
can fit the bike to your size.
We can also provide trailers and trailer bikes if you plan on a family tour.
Each guided tour is supported by a specially equipped 9-15 passenger van with
roof-mounted bike racks, extra parts and bikes. Each morning
the van delivers your luggage to the next hotel on the
route.
On
a typical day, riders leave throughout the morning and
can be found along the length of the route. The van sweeps
the route at intervals during the day giving assistance,
providing lifts, making minor repairs or taking any purchases
off you that you
bought along the way. Whether you're planning on riding
a long or short route, you can hail the van as it sweeps
by or meet
up with it
at the pre-arranged rendezvous points marked on the
tour. You're welcome to use the van as much as you
need.
