🚴 The Alps or the Pyrenees? It's a question we're often asked by cyclists planning a trip to the mountains.

Both have some of the most famous climbs in professional cycling, but they're quite different places to ride.

The Alps are known for their big mountain passes, long climbs and iconic hairpin bends, while the Pyrenees tend to offer quieter roads, steeper gradients and a more remote feel.

We've compared the two, looking at the cycling, scenery, weather and practicalities of planning a trip.

Have you ridden both? We'd love to know which you prefer.

🇹🇭 Is Thailand the Next Big Cycling Destination?

Spain, France and Italy might be the first places that spring to mind when planning a cycling holiday. But what about Thailand?

It's not a destination that often tops European cyclists' wish lists, yet there's a lot to make it worth considering.

One of the biggest questions is how Thailand compares with more established cycling destinations. What's the riding really like? How easy is it to plan a trip? And is it somewhere you'd want to bring your own bike?

We spoke to Nicolas Brocard of LocalRoutes Cycling Adventures , who knows the country from a cyclist's perspective, to get a better understanding of what a cycling holiday in Thailand involves.

If you're curious about cycling somewhere a little less familiar, this is worth a read.

What starts as a simple purchase can turn into a whole new lifestyle. New roads, new friendships, unforgettable adventures, and a whole new way of seeing the world. 🌍

Sometimes, all it takes is two wheels to change everything.

🚴‍♀️⛵ Ever thought about exploring the Netherlands by bike boat?

We recently spent eight days island-hopping with Boat Bike Tours, cycling through the beautiful Dutch countryside and sailing across the Wadden Sea!

From the sandy beaches of Texel and Terschelling to peaceful cycle paths, historic harbours and picturesque villages, this was a cycling holiday with a difference. 🇳🇱

And the best part? No packing and unpacking every day. Our sailing ship was our home for the week!

We've shared our full experience, including our day-by-day itinerary, what life aboard was like and our tips for planning your own sail and bike adventure.

Exploring Budapest Beyond the City Centre 🇭🇺

When you think of Budapest, thermal baths, grand architecture and riverside cafés probably come to mind.

But what if you swapped some of the usual sightseeing for two wheels? 🚴

Hungary’s capital makes an interesting base for a cycling holiday. You can spend the morning exploring the city, escape into the countryside for a longer ride, and still be back in time to enjoy Budapest's famous food and café scene.

And with the Danube running right through the city, there's plenty to discover beyond the usual tourist spots.

We've put together a guide to help you see a different side of Budapest, with route inspiration and advice from someone who knows the local cycling scene.

Could Budapest be your next cycling city break?
