JANUARY 2022
 
 A BRIGHT NEW YEAR -
AND WINNERS! 
~
 
Having seen 2022 described as the third attempt at 2020 – let’s hope it is third time lucky!
 
The majority of restrictions in England, Scotland and Wales will be lifted next week, and while many will continue to take sensible precautions, signs are that by spring we will be looking forward to normality with the high vaccination and past infection rate giving the UK a positive route out of the pandemic. So we are cautiously optimistic that this year will be busy!
 
We were delighted that so many of our travellers entered the photo competition last year and our favourite photo - above - taken in the Lake District, wins a pair of ground pass tickets to Wimbledon or £100 Amazon vouchers.  
 
It was a hard choice and some of the close runners up are featured below, so if they inspire you to take to the road, cycle path or footpath then do take a look around our website.
 
We will be running the competition again this year – so dust off your lens and get snapping!
 
Happy planning,
 
  A KENT SEASIDE JOLLY
There were lots of great shots from this trip to Kent in
July and this one was drawn as the winner of a £100 voucher off a future trip with us.  Love the combination of sea and cycle and castle!

 
  THE LAKE DISTRICT  
This was a stunning panorama looking back over Thirlmere - apologies we had to crop it to fit here!
As well as being a paradise for walkers - with routes to suit all fitness levels, we are particularly proud of our Electric Lakes E-bike Tour - on which this shot was taken. 
 
  THAMES SOURCE TO SEA 
We had several clients cycling or walking along the Thames last year - and discovering the beauty right on their doorstep. This was a tailormade trip from the Source near Cirencester as far as Oxford and we are always happy to help you plan the perfect holiday. See the full route here 

 
 
This estuary at Walberswick in Suffolk must have the most expensive boat ride in the world at £2 for a whole minute's trip by rowboat!  (Just until the bridge is rebuilt). Whether you choose to walk or cycle Suffolk has so many little gems. Discover more here ...
