I started this website in 2020 with a series of one paragraph reviews covering the various longer cycle tours I had joined in Europe and the USA over the previous ten years.  I had tried to cover topics that seem to elicit interest when discussing our tours with family, friends and people we meet during our rides.  The reviews web page therefore contains two sections, the first devoted to my reviews and the other includes reviews submitted directly to this site using the Template provided at the bottom of the Contact Me page.

​

After looking at the feedback I had received, I added reviews of one day and partial day events as these are often the means by which potential cycle tourists get to experience the joys of cycling.  Please also use the Contact Me page to suggest improvements or to identify data that needs to be collected but hasn't been so far.

​

Throughout the website I have made references to cycle tour companies (see Tips 4 Touring for details of the companies I have used), operators, guides, etc.  Usually positive, but not always so, but please remember that these are my views and may not accord with your experience or the experience of others that you talk too.  Cycle tourists can spend a lot of money to do bike tours and, accordingly, we need as much information as possible to make important expenditure decisions, even if this means having to weigh up competing opinions and make a personal decision.

​

So, please, have a read, make a decision and then spend whatever time is required getting ready to ride!
