Last week in the Sunday Herald Sun liftout there was a feature on one travel writer's top 10 cycling trips. What I liked about this article is that he had ridden all of them himself and there were no links to the usual advertisers who get all the coverage in travel media because of their sponsorship.

Here's his list:
- New Zealand Alps 2 Ocean
- France (anywhere)
- Indian Himalayas
- Switzerland Lakes Route
- Canada Price Edward Island
- Western Australia Munda Biddi Trail
- Bosnis & Herzegovina Ciro Trail
- Spain Camino Trail
- Wales Lon Las Cymru Trail
- South Korea Four Rivers Trails

Thoughts? Which of the destinations that Pedal Pedal hasn't already done appeals to you?

An article I wrote for Bicycle Network's Ride On Magazine has just come out. The quality of the scan isn't great, I am still trying to hunt down a print copy.

We are back in Bhutan in Mar/Apr 2027 with space still available for those looking to join one of the most magical place you could ever cycle.

Are you thinking about 2028 yet? We are. And we are thinking Mongolia.

We’re excited to launch our brand new cycling adventure through one of the most vast, remote, and unforgettable landscapes on earth. This is Mongolia as few people experience it—riding across endless steppe, remote valleys, and wide-open horizons on almost entirely unsealed tracks.

For those who want a little extra support, e-bikes are available, making it easier to go further while still fully immersing yourself in the terrain, culture, and changing light of this extraordinary country.

You’ll stay in comfortable ger camps each night—no camping, no tents, just proper beds, warm meals, and a welcoming place to rest after a big day in the saddle.

This is an adventure for curious riders who value space, solitude, and the simple joy of travelling under your own power through landscapes that still feel wild and untouched.

We currently have one departure planned for June 2028, with a second tour to be added if there is enough interest.

It’s now live and ready to book—come and be part of something very special.

Our 2027 Bhutan tours have a special bonus as they will both cross over with Paro's annual Tschechu Festival.

More than just a festival, it's a kaleidoscope of Bhutanese culture, where ancient rituals dance with modern revelry, and spirituality intertwines with celebration.

This is THE big celebratory occasion for the locals of the Paro Valley with everyone out in their finest traditional dress. And while it can be hard for an outsider to understand what is going on on stage it is a spectacle not to be missed.

We will 'massage' the itineraries to ensure we get some time at the festival. All the more reason to join us in 2027 for a ride through Bhutan.

Sadly our time in Bhutan is over for now. Our second tour for this year was another wonderful experience full of incredible scenery and special moments that touched everyone in the group as only Bhutan can. We'll be back next year for more tours. There are limited places left in 2027 so if you're interested get in soon before we sell out.

Our final ride of the tour is the most epic of them all. We started with a 30km climb up to Yutongla Pass (3425m). The weather was perfect with views of snow capped mountains in all directions. It was a great effort by all who made it up. We descended quickly then climbed our final pass before a quick descent into the Bumthang Valley. What a day!

One of the best days on a bike, the 81km ride from Phobjikha Valley to Trongsa took us up over Pelela Pass (3400m) down along a road carved into the mountain side to our hotel with views of the Dzong. Bhutan at its best.

An easy but incredibly picturesque ride around Punakha. It's amazing how much we see in a day. Sighting of otters in the Po River made the whole day extra special.
