    Hi,

    I’m looking to book a summer (school holidays) cycling based holiday/ experience. Not sure about what to go for, I’d be traveling on my own so would like to join a group and be reasonably social. Single centre, travelling a certain route, iconic routes there’s a lot of choice out there!

    Any advice on holiday companies or particular holidays would be gratefully received,

    Thanks for your help

    Interesting topic, a slight tangent question – 

    Has anyone found anywhere (ideally northern Italy/Austria/Slovenia part of the world – love it around there) where you can rock up with the family, hire a decent bike and disapear to do 2-3 good rides over a week (ideally organised group stuff) – while the family have enough to do that they don’t get bored being left behind?

    Thanks jharrison5 you hit the nail on the head, that’s been my problem so many avenues. I think what really appeals is a long route supported ride, would get a bike box if I needed one. I have the pannier camping kit etc to do it unsupported but those rides don’t seem to be so social, open minded though to other suggestions. Thanks everyone else for the ideas so far I’ll get checking them out

    There are lots of organised things like this, usually advertised on here.  There is a bike hotel in Tuscany (I think) where you turn up and go out on organised rides each day, see below –

    In the UK or elsewhere? Are you looking for hotels, hostels or camping? Where are you traveling from? Do you own a bike box? Are you credit carding the journey or packing panniers?
