Fantastic, including a very nice lunch in a modern nice restaurant in a business/residential area. I have been on over 25 bike tours worldwide and this was quite nice. For those that are getting on in age and not the best shape (like me) I will say the route is mostly flat and not that strenuous, but remember it is 7 hours before you choose to sign up. Glad I picked the full day.”
