Warmer winter tour: where is good?

Cliff Elwell2006-11-29 12:54:51

We have decided to treat ourselves to a holiday on the tandem in February or March - somewhere warmer than the UK! Looking at feedback on the site, flying with Ryanair seems like the best option. Does anybody have any suggestions to where would be nice for a gentle touring holiday?

Some details:
Duration 5 days. Mileage: 50-80 miles per day, depending on terrain. On road or paved track (road tandem). We are happy to either ride from a nice base or to do a light tour - low weight bags and B&B/hotel.

Southern Italy looks nice, as does Spain, but I have little experience of riding in these areas. Any advice appreciated!

Thanks,
Cliff

There is a new cycleway along the coast in the Algarve in Portugal.
Looks really nice.

Lots of fish to eat when we Tandemmed there 10 years ago.

Try southern Arizona. USA. Great desert riding and lots of hills/mountains.
