After all the preparation, the time has finally come to get pedalling! The journey kicks off in the London Olympic Park, East London, where you’ll meet the rest of the group, the challenge leader and support team. An introductory briefing will include vital safety advice, and then you’re off! After a short cycle through the outskirts of London, the route passes along country roads all the way to Harwich on the Essex coast. (L,D). Approx. 77 miles / 124 kms
Accommodation: Overnight Ferry
After a night on the ferry we will arrive at Hook of Holland at around 0800hrs local time and roll down the ramp for a fantastic day of cycling first to Rotterdam and then on to The Hague. (B,L,D). Approx. 60 miles / 100kms
Accommodation: Hotel
From The Hague, you will spend the morning cycling along the flat cycle paths of the Zeeland coast. After cutting inland and riding through more typically Dutch scenery we head into Amsterdam and our finish line at Dam Square in the heart of the nation's capital.
There’s time for a quick celebratory drink and the obligatory victory snaps at the finish line, before heading off to your hotel for the final celebratory dinner together. (B,L,D). Approx. 40 miles / 60kms
Accommodation: Hotel
Now the hard work is over, you can take the morning to explore Amsterdam or simply lie in and relax after last night’s celebrations.
Later it’s time to make your own way back to London as per your own travel arrangements. (B)
