UK - Northumberland - Guided Road Cycling Weekend

A real pleasure!

Thank you for a fabulous weekend. For me, the cycling was a little challenging – but I do love a challenge! The guides were amazing, the scenery was fantastic, the sun shone (thank you for arranging that too) and I made it to the top of each climb and down to the bottom of each descent. I came wanting to gain a little more confidence on my bike, push myself a bit and ride somewhere different and it was 10/10 on all three points.

It was a real pleasure to ride with our guide. His welcoming and friendly manner made me feel like we were a group of friends out for a few days’ ride. At the same time, he took charge where needed and I felt fully safe riding with him, especially through Newcastle, where he led with aplomb. Our other guide has been on three of our trips with Skedaddle. He is confident and experienced and always great company and he has certainly encouraged me to believe in my cycling abilities. Finally our other guide was also an absolute delight to cycle with. He kept me going up the hills as I started to tire on Saturday, providing support and plenty of interesting conversation. It was lovely to meet and cycle with him.

Faultless!

This was our first holiday with Skeddadle and you have set the bar very high, the overall service was faultless from initial contact to waving goodbye at the end of the tour.

From the minute we arrived we were warmly welcomed by David and the team. Information about what was coming up either during the evening or days was passed and updates shared at every opportunity. Nothing was too much trouble and you felt that all the necessary Health & Safety aspects were addressed in a very efficient and professional manner.

Although Matt, Francis and Rob were the guides they morphed into the group with such ease it seemed like they were giving everyone their attention whilst seamlessly navigating and controlling the group.

From first contact with Skeddadle via email and the subsequent phone calls, texts and follow up emails the preamble from all the office staff made you feel like you were the only people they were dealing with. Having now been on the holiday and understanding the amount of tours that the office staff deal with per year this amount of feedback for such a short break in our minds was excellent.

Absolutely fantastic!

Both days were absolutely fantastic. Unforgettable actually, particularly cycling above the mist on the Sunday morning.

I thought the holiday was really, really good value for money.

Just an overall big thank you to the whole team, from the moment I booked until the moment I left on Sunday afternoon the service and experience were fantastic.

So supportive!

Tim and Alan were both very supportive without being patronising when I fell behind on the hills. They made it a very cheerful event.
