We visited a Temple, saw riverside landmarks and negotiated through backstreets. There is lots of food on this tour - so come with an appetite. The cycling was flat & relatively easy - but some of the back streets & pavements needed negotiating. Our guides were great at looking after the 10 cyclists on the tour & kept us altogether most of the time! They also took photos and shred them via a Google drive. The best bit…”
