What
if it rains?
I provide waterproof jackets - but it really doesn't
rain much and the jackets are rarely used. In
really bad weather the tour will be cancelled
& refunds given but this hardly ever happens.
Do we cycle on roads?
The route goes through the city centre using a
mixture of paths and quiet roads.
Do we need to be fit?
No, it really is a non-strenuous leisurely tour
suitable for all ages from 10 to 70+. There is
so much of interest in Edinburgh that we have
to stop at least every few minutes for me to tell
you what we are looking at. There are a few hills
but they are very short. The route has been chosen
so that we gradually rise rather than having any
big climbs.
Do I need to be able to ride a bike?
Yes, but don't worry if it's been a while - it's
just like riding a bike!
What kind of bikes are they?
The bikes are TREK Navigator city bikes. They
are comfortable and very easy to ride. Every day
people are impressed at how good the bikes are
- quite often people say, "this is much better
than my own bike."
Do we need to make
reservations in advance?
Yes reservations are required so that I know that
you are coming - you can always change your booking
nearer time. So please email me with the date
and time you would like to do the tour
We haven't reserved a tour but can we come
along anyway?
It's best to phone , even on the day, just to
make sure the tour is running and there is a bike
available for you.
How many people are on each tour?
Tour groups are small - a maximum of 15 people
- but usually much less.
Can we ask questions on the tour?
Yes of course, everytime we stop you will have
a chance to ask me about anything you like. This
enables me to make the tour fit your particular
interests.
Can we take photographs?
Yes, we go to many fantastic vantage points, ideal
for taking photographs. Some people have even
taken a video camera (see photo opposite). If
you don't have a camera with you don't worry.
I can take a digital photo with my camera and
email it to you after the tour. |
