"Hi Pete and Christine, thank you both for the great cycle tour we could enjoy last week. It was a very nice experience in all senses. It was the first time we cycled without carrying our own luggage and we really enjoyed it. Maybe it's the age...Christine did a great job fixing everything, even surprised us with a bottle of wine at the end in Edinburgh. It tasted really good after the wet day on the road and two times flat tyre. We will without any hesitation recommend this tour and your company to any one of our friends or whoever asks us."
