Do you bike on vacation?
I was just reflecting on my last couple of vacations, and I have noticed a change in my travel behavior. These days I try to seek out a tourist bike tour (it could be a historic tour, neighborhood tour or food tour), use the bike share or rent a bike from my hotel to take in the sights.
I can't always get my travel companions to partake, so I might just go off for a quick ride to get coffee before we leave for the day, or find some other window of quiet time.
It great to see what infrastructure (or lack there of) exists. I've done it on basically every trip recently.
One of the highlights was in Chiang Mai Thailand. I did a city tour on a city bike, we went to some temples as well as an immigrant area. And we got snacks. It was really informative mixing history/culture/bike rides. The company also did mountain biking tours - but that is not my speed.
So do you bike? what has been your favorite vacation cycling experience?
