I'm thinking about trying to organise a biking trip to the UK for a group of people from our cycle club here in Madrid, but I'm not sure how to go about it.
I always read on here about companies in Spain, France etc that organise riding trips, but I suppose there are ones in the UK too - can anyone recommend one? Ideally I'd like to go to Scotland I think, but other venues would be considered. Maybe a mix of routes with some trail centres thrown in (as none of us have been to a trail centre before).
The other option is to try to organise it myself (with the help of STW) and put together a plan of routes, places to stay, bike hire if necessary etc. This would almost certainly end up being a pain in the arse for me but is likely to work out cheaper and I can obviously tailor it to the group. I don't really know how many people would come - maybe a dozen.
Thanks in advance
That should be different for them
And you can just head off into the hills (even in England), providing you stick to rights of way: there's this amazing device called "an OS map" that tells you where those are. Sorted. however, to find the best riding I agree some sort of local knowledge helps.
