Holiday Feedback

This was a glorious trip, with stunning scenery, the weather sunny, and the road was much quieter, as we appeared to have lost many of the cyclists encountered over the weekend the first two days. It was also glorious leaving Linz, with the very lovely paths through the woods and quiet farms before Enns. And then Enns to Grein was also lovely … quiet, still weather, no winds, not many cyclists, just the beautiful path through nature reserves and along the Danube.
The representatives from Skedaddle we had contact with were very helpful and patient with us. Adam in the office helped no end, and Toby in Passau was extremely patient!
