All rides will have a guide, campsites will be pre-booked and baggage is carried by the support vehicle.  With around 30 people on each ride, it’s great fun, as witnessed by feedback from last year’s riders.  Rides are suitable for all ages.

Towns and cities  so far confirmed are :  Bristol, Birmingham, Manchester, London, Sheffield, Lechdale, Middleton Cheney, Stoke and Coventry
