Our escort vehicle (Mercedes Sprinter) will accompany us throughout the tour and can be used to safely store any private belongings that you don’t need during the tour. There will also be plenty of water in the van should you need extra, and in case the cycling proves to be too exhausting, you are welcome to take the seat next to the driver and complete part of the route in the van.
