Bicycle tours are an excellent way to relax and rejuvenate. Pedaling
a bicycle gets those endorphins flowing, and you'll get a different, more
intimate perspective of the local culture and environment from atop a bike
than you would traveling by air, rail, or automobile.
Bicycle tours are a great way to bond with family and friends, but they are also a great way to vacation solo. And there are cycling tours available for just about every interest and budget. Whether you are interested in a day or weekend trip, or a week-long or month-long bicycle adventure tour with all the trimmings, there are bicycle touring choices that are sure to appeal to you!
One benefit of touring by bicycle is that you can simply hop on your
bicycle and go for a ride. This can work for brief day trips.
However, if you are planning a long bicycle tour, it is important to
select your bicycle, touring route, cycling gear, eating & sleeping
arrangements, and daily distances carefully, based on your preferences
and abilities. Bicycle touring is both a physical adventure and a
retreat from the hustle and bustle of daily life. However, based on
your preferences, you can choose a more extreme tour that is physically
demanding and offers little in the way of luxuries, a tour that offers
gourmet meals and lodging in upscale Bed and Breakfasts, or something in
between.
