Frequently asked questions about our United Kingdom cycling tours
How challenging are your UK cycling tours?
Our United Kingdom cycling tours are graded Moderate. Our
Hadrian's Wall Coast to Coast Cycling Trip and
Cycle Devon tour takes a more leisurely pace with 39km per day. We grade all of our cycling trips to help you select the best route for your experience and ability - take a look at our
Cycling Grades page to find out more.
What bikes do you use on your UK cycling tours?
We will give you a 24-gear Giant Escape 2 unisex hybrid bike to ride. This is included in the cost of your cycling trip. We'll match the frame size to your height and help you to make adjustments for a good and comfortable fit before you set off. We'll also provide an 18-litre pannier and a bottle cage, and if you want to bring your own pedals and saddle we can fit those for you too. For a little bit of extra power up the steep hills of the North Pennines, an
electric bike (or e-bike) can be hired for an additional fee.
Are your United Kingdom cycling tours suitable for solo travelers?
Yes, absolutely! All of our small group cycling vacations in the UK are ideal for solo cyclists. Almost half of all the people who join our cycling tours do so alone, so you'll be joining lots of like-minded adventurers. Take a look at our
Guide to Traveling Solo to find out more.
