This is the dilemma!<\/p>\n\n<p>Bringing lots of food supplies, sleeping bags and camping tents, means making your biking trip a struggle and not a pleasure experience. Your bycicle is not a camper.<\/p>\n\n<p>Before you get on your bike, you need to organise your trip properly!<\/p>\n\n<p>Ad hoc and bike friendly facilities are available along the cycle routes. Book <strong>bike hotels<\/strong> in advance for the night and plan stops for refreshments along your route.
