The Best Countries for a Bike Adventure (According to You) - Seek Travel Ride | Lyssna här

What's the best country to take a bike adventure? I put that question to the Seek Travel Ride Instagram community, and the answers poured in, from expected favourites to a few genuine curveballs. This episode is dedicated to running through every single one.

It comes on the back of a scorching European summer and a roadside afternoon spectating the Tour de France, which got me reflecting on how the race first brought me to France and ultimately to the Pyrenees back in 2013, where I now live.

Countries featured in this episode:

Most votes: France, Turkey, Spain
Mountain destinations: Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Bolivia, Norway
Off the beaten path: Tunisia, New Caledonia, El Salvador, Saudi Arabia
Classic bike-adventure countries: New Zealand, Thailand, Japan, China, Peru, Iran
The philosophical answer: "Wherever you haven't been yet" (and "any country" will do)

Got a country to add to the list? Get in touch and let me know your pick for the best country to take a bike adventure.
