Ok, I am a longtime vegan (14 years), and a short time 'bent rider/lover (1 year).
I have been thinking about taking some time off from my life (work) and enjoying the other part of
life everyone else is talking about (play), and was looking around on the web at some of the bike
tours around the world, there seem to be a few, but one stands out, Bicycle Beano .
Was wondering if anyone on the list has been on one of the "Beano" tours and how did it turn out?
Was the tour organized well, how was the food and accomodations ? And of course do they handle
single folks ? I live in the USA so maybe someone from here would be better for a Yank's
perspective... So the 'good,bad,ugly' would be great as this would be my first trip overseas period,
so I would be green from many standpoints ;^} Also, any other tours that fit the veggie lifestyle?
How difficult is it to transport a Recumbent overseas (Burley Taiko) and would it be better to just
rent a bent (if there is such a thing over there).
I really want to get away and play on my 'bent, and would also like to see a country with real
"history", but don't want to deal with the "language barrier" (yup I am one of those dumb americans
that only knows english).
So any input would be appreciated, even if it is just , "your nuts, stay home and play" or "don't go
there, go to New Zealand" etc...
We are snowed in up here for the next three months and I am going nuts (can't ride), so thought I
would at least start planning for next years trip/vacation...
tia for any input
