Explore your holiday destination by bike

So many beautiful hidden gems can be missed when exploring an area by car and a bike allows you to cover many more off-road miles than by foot. In the UK we have over 14,500 miles of National Cycle Network with trails and routes to suit all disciplines and energy levels. Whether you want to meander along the waters edge on a canal towpath; take a nostalgic trip along one of the many disused railway lines or take on some of the mighty mountainous descents, the UK offers great opportunities for all cyclists.

Next time you go away on holiday why not take your bike with you or hire one locally. A great activity for the whole family which can provide hours of penny free fun and one of the best ways to fully explore your holiday destination.

Tips: If you have a valuable bike, speak to the owner to identify how secure the bike storage is. If you get cycling fit before you go you’ll be able to explore more miles. Do some homework before setting off on your travels and plan some great routes and days out in advance. If you’re touring and want to stop and explore the areas villages, towns and attractions, take bike locking facilities with you.
