You're Feeling Confident and You've Booked a Cycling Trip. But Now, How Do You Prepare For It?
Image: David Dvořáček/ Unsplash.com Planning for a trip is exciting, especially a cycling trip, where you will get to ride new roads, meet other cyclists, and experience a culture unlike your own, which is true if your trip is international. You might think that you ride a couple of times a week and you push yourself but not always. That said, you’re feeling confident that you can take on a…
Want to Blend History and Culture with A Cycling Trip? Then Book a Trip with Ride and Seek Bicycle Adventures.
Image: Peter Jochim/ Pexels.com If you choose to do an international cycling trip in Europe (or somewhere else), you probably have specific reasons for doing so. It may be because you are a dedicated road cyclist and you want to ride in the countries where cycling first became important, such as Italy, France, or Spain. But maybe it’s because you have an interest in the history of certain areas…
Monday Update: Rest Day for Tour de France After 9 Crazy Stages
Hello, Everyone: 9 stages of the Tour de France completed and over 700 miles ridden so far, and today is a rest day. There are usually about three rest days during the three weeks the peloton is out on the roads of France. “Rest day,” by the way, is a bit of a misnomer. While the riders aren’t racing, they still do a training ride to keep their legs fresh. So far, it’s been a tour with a lot of…
Monday Update: 4th of July; A Hot Tour de France So Far
Hello, Everyone: I hope you all had a magnificent 4th of July weekend and celebrated America’s 250th birthday in a fun, safe, and relaxing way. After a steamy week, it seems things this week are a bit cooler with normal summer temperatures, so I’m grateful for that. This weekend, in addition to some key World Cup games, the Tour de France started in an explosive fashion with Jonas Vingegaard…

Image: Ainur Khakimov/ Unsplash.com Summer is prime cycling season for most of us, but maybe you’re looking at your current bike and thinking it’s time for something new? Or you’ve got an old bike collecting dust in your garage that you never ride anymore and you would like to do something with it other than just donate it to a charity? Parting ways with an old bike is a hard decision to make…
Calendar Update: Welcome to July; Three Days Until the Start of Le Tour de France.
Image: Cycling 2025 Calendar from Amazon.com Hello, Everyone: And boom!! It’s now July and we are now totally immersed in the summer season. It’s hot, the days are long, and the nights are mostly pleasant. This is my favorite time of year, if you haven’t guessed. Summer to me means various things: travel, concerts, long bike rides, sitting on the patio with a beer in hand and looking at the…
Monday Update: The European Heatwave Has Arrived Here in The U.S.; Start of the Tour de France in Barcelona
Hello, Everyone: Welcome to the last Monday in June. The much talked about and reported on heat wave that has been plaguing Europe for the last couple of weeks has arrived here in the United States. Temperatures will be hovering in the high 90s, then much the same for next week. If you have air conditioning, it’s a good time to take advantage of it and, perhaps, delve into your summer reading…
Looking For An Active Solo or Family Cycling Trip in Southern France? Check Out The Cévennes d'Ardèche Region
Image: Lucas Gallone/ Unsplash.com There are times when you just want to ride your bike on your own, with your significant other, or even with your family and still put in some good miles. You don’t want to deal with the stress and the competitive factor that most cyclists bring with them to everything they do, or be around a group of people you don’t know on an organized cycling trip. In other…
Last Week of June; Pogacar Wins Tour de Suisse; Cycling Scams
Hello Everyone: Time for the weekly Monday update here on the bicycle travel blog. It turns out this is the last full week of June, and while the warmer weather and longer days are welcome guests, the first month of summer is almost over, and that is always a bit of a bummer. And yesterday was the Summer Solstice, which marks the longest day of the year and the shortest night. Over the…
Are You a Cheese-Loving Cyclist? Then You Should Participate in Wisconsin's Swiss Cheese & Spotted Cows Bicycle Tour
Image: Dave Hoefler/ Unsplash.com The midwestern United States is sometimes maligned as too boring, too conservative, and too cold. But believe it or not, the region plays host to some great cycling locations, such as Minneapolis, Minnesota. But another place that draws cyclists from around the country is Wisconsin. Wisconsin is primarily known for its cheese and beer, not so much for being a…
Do You Ride Your Bike to Lose Weight or to Gain Fitness? You Can Lose Weight with Cycling, But It Takes Time
Image: i yunmai/ Unsplashed.com If asked, many of us would say we chose to take up cycling for a plethora of reasons. It might have been to do an activity you enjoy, for the fun of going for a casual bike ride around the neighborhood, to get fit, or to lose weight. Truth is, most people would probably say it’s a combination of all these factors. For me, cycling was a way to reconnect with my…
Paul Seixas Crashes and Issac Del Toro Wins Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and Other Monday Meanderings
Happy Monday, Everyone: We’re, unbelievably, at the midpoint in June, which means that summer is already a quarter over. But fret not, we have lots of summer still ahead with long days in the sun for great riding. Summer is my favorite time of year, but as I’ve gotten older, this time of year seems to shoot by so fast. Today, I read an article about how our perception of time changes from when…
Europe Too Expensive For a Cycling Trip? Experience a Touch of Europe in Quebec, Canada and Cycle La Route Verte
Image: Nathalia Segato/ Unsplash.com If you’re an American cyclist, maybe you have longed to visit Europe for a cycling trip so you can ride the roads of the Grand Tours and Spring Classics. Maybe you’re dreaming about, perhaps, cycling through France, Spain, or Italy, or even visiting another country in Europe to explore on your bike. Then again, the flight to Europe is expensive, it’s crowded…
Visit Oklahoma and Ride America's First Major Highway During Cycle 66
Image: Rocio Abrego/ Unsplash.com Believe it or not, there was a time when highways didn’t exist and people had to use a maze of roads to get to their destination. Then, on November 11, 1926, U.S. Route 66 opened, allowing people to drive from Chicago to Santa Monica, California. Route 66 was used until the middle of the 20th century, when it was replaced by the Interstate Highway System, then…
Start of Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes(formerly Critérium du Dauphine). Finally, It Feels Like Summer
Hello, Everyone: We’re into the second week of June and it is finally feeling like summer, and I’ve switched over to my summer wardrobe of t-shirt, shorts, and sandals.

The race occurs across 8 stages and is considered the primary…

Welcome to May; End of the Giro d'Italia
Image: Cycling 2025 Calendar Hello Everyone: And just like that, it’s now June and the first month of summer. The days are sunnier and longer and mostly warmer, although still with some cool nights. So, in my opinion, ideal. But from now until September or so, it should get even warmer with less rain. Enjoy the cool nights, which are, of course, excellent for good sleep. Over the weekend, the…
