Default Re: Bicycle tourism?

My dad has done this every year for the past 7 years, after being an avid rider for a long long time. He will go overseas with a group of his friends of organised tours and everything is included in thet package i think.

From Australia, he's been to;
Spain twice
Italy
New Zealand
France
Canada
and a few others i forget

You'd be able to join onto a group im sure, which has a riding leader along with a safety bus which allows you to get in if you're tired etc...

I guess i can't really be more helpful, other than to say he loves it and plans to keep going every year until he is physically unable to
