See Europe by Bike

There are few better ways to take in the sights, absorb the history, and experience all there is of the ancient cities and small towns of Europe than by bike.

The Netherlands; the wine region of Bordeaux, France; the mountain passes and lush valleys of Switzerland. The Dutch Wheelman Bicycle Shop is experienced in leading small group tours through the countryside's of Europe.

In September 2007 the Dutch Wheelman lead a group of riders to Switzerland. Ten days of biking began and ended in Geneva. The route took cyclists by lakes, through vineyards and quaint villages, much of the terrain was over rolling hills while some riders opted to climb a few mountain passes. Total mileage varied from approximately 300 - 500 miles.

What's next? Tuscany. In September 2008, the Dutch Wheelman will guide a group of 15 riders through this European cycling mecca. Cyclist will fly into Rome and bike along the coast to Tuscany, where they will explore the area. After a visit to Florence the group will travel by train back to Rome.

More information will follow as details become available. Trips will be limited to 15 people but we will consider multiple trips if demand warrants so. Please contact us if you want to be updated on the progress.
