England Bicycle Trips

Better than expected. Great group of people (even though I was only USA person). Leaders were awesome and never skipped a beat. Everything went smoothly - even when I got lost for a few minutes. Excellent trip leaders, great itinerary, very nice hotel accommodations (except Barcelona)

Overall it was great-very lucky with weather and no bike issues-route was good and there were only 2 times where it took a few mins for phone to find me after sending me the wrong way-the only issues I had were first day getting to parranport and not being fully aware that st Agnes was still a reasonable ride further on-yes I could have researched more but first day you are getting used to things and in hindsight all the other towns you are riding too have accomodation icons on the route-maybe it could just be emphasised more?and all the accomodations were great but one in Penzance was a little step down-location good ,host nice guy but toilet seat broken ,basic breakfast in room top of coffee filter missing and towel edges frayed

Awesome trip leader James Brown! Only comment was my bike needed fenders for the wet weather. Also recommend providing some type of carrier for day use accessories like additional clothes for rain or camera.

An excellent trip, despite some tough weather conditions. James Brown was a superb leader who kept everyone motivated and supported throughout. He had very good local knowledge and we all felt we were in good hands. I suggest one change to the itinerary - the trip should start in Tynemouth (where it finishes) so that there is no problem retracing steps (potentially with heavy luggage) to get back to the parked cars (which were next to the Premier Inn in Whitley Bay). The Premier Inn is not a great choice for Explore (massive chain) and Tynemouth is a much more attractive and interesting tourist destination compared to Whitley Bay, so a more appropriate starting point for the trip

The local support were very organized and communicative. The b&bs were all great. Some routes were a little to busy, but may be no way around it. There were some slightly larger villages that might have been better for our 2 nite stays with more to do after our rides.

First of all, our tour guide, Dan was fabulous! And we were impressed by the beautiful accommodations that we had, and the scenery was amazing. We liked being able to have some time to ourselves in the evenings, and explore the towns that we were staying in.
