Leuke manier om een deel van het eiland te ontdekken. Het is wel vrij kort maar leuk om te doen. Het idee was om om 7.00 uur te starten, vanwege de temperatuur. Maar dat vonden wij toch echt wel te vroeg tijdens onze vakantie. Om 10.00 uur gestart, was goed te doen.

My wife and I did this excursion as absolute beginners. We are overweight and haven’t been on a non-stationary bike in years. My wife thought it would be fun to try it. And it was, but only thanks to our amazing guide. He was patient and kind and most of all very encouraging. We stopped at more “picture spots” than we probably should have, and I’m sure it was his way of giving us a break. The bikes were in very good shape, but my wife’s seat was much smaller than mine and that led to her getting soreness from the seat (and not just our lack of physical activity). In the end, we made the 14-mile ride and enjoyed some amazing scenery along the way along with a beautiful chapel and majestic lighthouse. If you’re planning on doing this as a total beginner, just be aware that it’s really difficult, but rewarding when you finish.

Fantastic scenery of the north coast. Didn’t get to the light house because I lost my phone on the trail and had to trace back on the trail and found it...
