Hi Gwendolyn, Many of our tours have senior first time riders. Email us back at [email protected] and let us know a little more – how many kms a day you ride, where you wish to cycle, etc and we’ll do our best to help you out.

As I have witnessed – it is a good idea if you have some anti-histamines on the bike if you are allergic to bee/wasps

A tiny container with a few pills such as pain meds, anti spasmodic like buscopan, anti diarrheal like Imodium, or an antacid may save the day. These issues strike fast, and camp is a long way to go if you’re sick.
