Best places you've ever cycled

[openroad]

For me it was Holland

Mallorca, especially in the North of the Island around Pollenca. Beautiful roads, polite drivers and a cycling Mecca!

Morocco. But also many wonderful rides in different parts of Wales.

Usually go for two weeks every summer and hire the bike out there from Pollenca cycle hire for the full two weeks. End of July can get quite hot so I usually get out on the bike nice and early and aim to be back before the mid day heat kicks in.

For me, riding along the north coast between Reay and Durness. The views were stunning

Also I'm a fan of the Vale of York and up into North Yorkshire. Some lovely cycling around there

That looks great!

For me it's the Isle of Arran and MTBing in the Lake District

That looks like a great place

Normandy and Loire valley. Great road surfaces, lack of traffic, drivers who know what to do when they see a cyclist, good food, good weather, reasonable camping facilities, etc....

Lanzarote for me, absolutely loved it.

The locals simply accept cyclists, I presume as some pro teams train on the island in the winter, and of course Lanzarote also hosts one of the most prestigious Iron Man events as well. As a result you are given loads of room by motorists the like of which I've never experienced before.

The main roads all put UK roads to shame, they're like glass in comparison.

The only downsides, (there has to be some right?), are the almost relentless wind and the volcanic aggregate they use for all sorts of purposes. Therefore I had more punctures in two weeks that I normally have in two years, but never the less, I'd go back tomorrow.

Mull and the Ardnamurchan and Morvern peninsulas.

Spectacular even when it rains.

Only place outside of north west uk was from Manhatten to Coney Island and back... which was nice.

Lanzarote for me, absolutely loved it.

Liked that too, although it fails on the scenery front. The place looks like the moon!

Not saying. Don't want all the CycleChat riff-raff turning up!
