    Rapid assumption or factual information?


    Looks like an interesting trip. Difficult to find out price and other more specific info though.

    Not exactly
    - have you tried clicking on the 'View more information on this special departure' link at the bottom of that page ?

    I've never been on a cycling trip with KE, but I've seen their trekking trips in the Himalayas and been to their office in Keswick and I think they're pretty good.

    Like their trekking trips, going on one of these is a lot more expensive than if you organised it all yourself, but - as with Explore, Exodus, etc. - you're paying for someone else to make all the arrangements for you.

    I'm signed up and raring to go.

    I was due to ride the Pyrenees this summer, but this came up just as I was about to pay, and I really fancy the trip and riding with Obree sounded great to me.

    I agree that you pay a premium for someone else to make all the arrangements, but that very much works for me, I'll work at doing what I do best to earn the money to pay someone else to do what they do best, arrange biking holidays.

    Obree has long been a cycling hero of mine, so this sounds very cool, plus riding the Bonnette-Restefonde was a clincher.
