For many people an excuse to wear tight-fitting lycra, cycling holidays don't need to be about how fast you can charge up a hill.
UK vacations offer great cycling holiday packages with an 80-mile trail along the Pembrokeshire coast part of the National Cycle network or day-tips around the Lake District with Michelin-stared accommodation available at Gilpin Lodge. Check out the Isle of Man's TT course, with six trails on the island and plenty of hire locations.
Keeping to city travel holiday deals, Berlin has twenty marked trails, Paris has fancy new American Electra bikes for hire and Amsterdam has over 250-miles of bike paths and plenty of budget accommodation. Think you can average about 34 miles a day? Why not take a week out and cycle along the Danube from Vienna and Budapest?
Further afield, Milford Wilderness in NZ is home to the Lord of the Rings movies and 10-day tours, Cambodia tours cover 180km in 11 days and Bangkok to Ho Chi Minh City is three weeks of pedalling!
For cheap holidays in Australia, Sydney has 4-hour tours with Bonza Bike Tours and Melbourne has similar with Real Melbourne Bike Tours, both taking in the main sights and landmarks.
Get enough pedal time on your cycling holidays and you'll be gearing up for the next Tour de France in no time.
