Our Mission: inspire cyclists and promote bicycle touring around the world.

The A-Z of Bicycle Touring is a collaborative project of the international bicycle touring community.  Cyclists from all over the world share their unique perspectives on bicycle touring in some of the world’s most adventurous destinations.

We believe every country on the planet has something to offer for cyclists. The A-Z of Bicycle Touring aims to highlight 5 reasons to go bicycle touring in each and every major country.

How you can contribute:

  • Are you passionate about bicycle touring?
  • Can you think of 5 good reasons to go bicycle touring in one of the world’s 195 countries?
  • Would you be willing to share those reasons with other cyclists?
  • Have you got 5 inspiring photos to go along with those 5 good reasons to go bicycle touring in country X?

It’s as simple as that.

Check out these guest posts to get a better idea of the project.  If you think you can contribute, get in touch!

We hope you can join us in spreading the word about the wonderful world of bicycle touring!

    and then it turns out you missed one of the best countries to cycle in; almost flat, many cycling lanes, people who are used to cyclists, very many campsites, every 10 miles a village to get some groceries, lots of bicycle shops to buy parts or get your bicycle repaired if your not able to do it yourself, lots of historical building and many more amenities. The Netherlands!!!

    Thanks for the help everybody! Yes, we definitely need pictures. If you want a country…it’s yours! The more guest posters the better.

    Really need somebody for Angola and Albania! Must get the “A”s out of the way.
