Cycling Tours in Sydney, Regional Australia, Sweden & Italy
While no two days are the same, a sample day on a supported tour will include a leisurely breakfast over good coffee prior to the morning cycle with a road-side morning tea breaking up the journey. After a tasty lunch at a country café, farm or off-road picnic, the afternoon’s cycling may include a visit to talk with an orchard or gallery owner. Arrival at the nights’ accommodation with plenty of time to explore the local village/town prior to dinner at a well-regarded local eatery. Join one of our supported; guided or self guided tours or contact us to arrange your own tour. (Two Sweden nine day tours in Aug. 2024 are booked out - enquire now for 2025).
Cycle Distance and Preparation
Cycle distances for 6 or 7 day tours are mostly around 40-60kms per day allowing for a relaxed pace and lots of time for off-bike activities and rest. Good aerobic fitness will ensure your cycling enjoyment combined with specific ‘cycling fitness’. Cycle regularly before the tour and get ‘saddle conditioned’ to be on a bike seat for up to 6 hours over the duration of the day.
Confidence to ride on roads shared with two-way car and truck traffic is needed. While approximately 80% of each tour is on quiet back roads, rail trails or dirt roads; there are times when relatively busier main roads are used.
