A unique way to experience Kent! Small group, guided cycling tours for all abilities, exploring both little-known places and the more iconic Kent sights.
Taking in several stunning bays, seaside sights, countryside, villages and Britain's smallest town, culminating in a tour of the cultural and historical heart of Canterbury. Along the way, there are frequent stops where Col will share stories about the history, culture and landscape, including little-known local secrets! The tour starts at Margate Station, just 1hr20 on the train from London.
Itinerary
11am // Meet at Margate station where you will be introduced to your fellow adventurers before heading off along a traffic-free coastal path then into the countryside through several quaint villages.
Early Afternoon // Quirky tea shop stop for a quick break (when we can). Lunch stop in Britain's smallest town, then ride along the riverside and through a beautiful wood to Canterbury.
Late Afternoon // A tour of the stunning medieval city of Canterbury.
Either jump on the train with Colin back to Margate or stay in Canterbury, explore, and catch the train back home in your own time.

Pavement parking...
That's just how it starts. It's the thin end of the wedge.
What scenario?
Haven't you just proved there that letting in all those cyclists does cause congestion?...
That's the key I think, even my nine-year-old Di2 battery only needs recharging about once every 1500 miles, which for me is about once every two...
Wasn't disputing it, ferdeen. I'd just meant that the media is full of "little old lady waits 96 hours for an ambulance after falling down stairs"...
Is it just me or are taxi drivers getting younger and younger? https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/uk-world-news/police-stop-boy-14-driving-8106787
Bit cheeky at that price expecting you to assemble them yourself though. I'll get me coat
