A liking for biking  If
the bike is more your thing, then Inntravel has some very good news for
you.
They’ve added a further nine routes to their independent Cycling
and More programme of European holidays for spring, summer and autumn
2008.
Brittany, Menorca, Umbria, Romagna, Basilicata and Puglia, Salzburg Lakes,
the Bernese Oberland and two routes in Sicily all make their first appearance
in the programme.
The flexible packages include small, comfortable hotels plus modern, well-maintained
bikes. Emergency assistance is on hand, plus detailed cycling notes and
maps, map case, panniers, lock and lights.
Luggage is transported from one hotel to another so that you travel light
when aboard your bike.
Prices run from £498 to £648 for seven nights but flights
are not included.
However Inntravel can advise and book the best routes, times and flights,
rail travel or ferry crossings to suit their customers.
Cycling through French vineyards
The French are officially really good at wine-making and cycling, so what
better way to spend a holiday in France than combining them.
A cycling tour through the Dordogne region will take you pedalling past
châteaux (they’re quite good at them as well) to taste a Saint
Émilion here, a sauternes there and perhaps a cheeky little pomerol
if the situation arises.
