  1. Hey everyone --

    I'm looking for ideas/suggestions. I'd like to take a @ week (budget) tour
    in a relatively flat area this September. I've already ridden in Holland and
    Croatia; I'm particularly interested in Eastern Europe or maybe Northern
    Germany. I'm by myself, hence my desire for a group (although if anyone
    wants to join me we could form our own group).

    One thing that really appeals to me is the Romanian Delta by bike, although
    no one else has signed up and they need at least two people (see
    http://www.biketoursdirect.com//?location=tourdetail&tid=171&searching=yes).

    Have any of you taken any interesting tours that you'd recommend? There are
    so many good ones out there when I search the web, I'm overwhelmed. I'm a 42
    year old woman with two knee replacements -- as much as I love walking, I'm
    not good at it anymore, but I can cycle all day. So I've decided my
    traveling will have to center around cycling from now on. Please don't try
    to convince me the glory of riding alone -- I want to be with others and I
    don't want to tote luggage. I like a shower at the end of the day and a real
    bed (but it doesn't have to be fancy, like Backroads).

    Thanks for any ideas :-)

    Sarah

    Go by yourself without a tour organizator. It isn't so difficult ;-)

    I would recommend Czechia and Slovakia. Both nice countries to visit.

    For flat, scenic, rides. I'd highly recommend the Mosel Valley in Germany.

    Given your requirement for flat, the only things I can recommend are along
    rivers.

    I fully agree. However, since she mentioned that she had an interest in
    Northern Germany, I would rather recommend the Weser, Hase and Ems
    rivers. All of them flat and scenic.

    Reports of similar bicycle rides at the site mentioned in the .sig.
