I am on the committee of a group trying to organise a ride from the UK to Barcelona in late June early July 2023. It is for a charity, although will not necessarily be a charity ride as a fundraiser, but all of the people have a medical condition. The medical condition benefits dramatically from Cycling! So I am hoping that the attendees will all be people who are keen cyclists rather than complete amateurs
I have masses of long-distance cycle touring experience, including across Europe, across the USA, and France end to end of each direction
I know what works for me, and that would be touring bike with panniers and camping in municipal sites. But this is going to be a mixed ability group some of whom have never cycled more than 20 miles in a day, and I have to accept that probably hotels will be the way to go. So we are likely going to be looking for van support and pick up those people who need help.
Can anyone recommend an organisation who would be able to help with planning on booking for this. I suspect we need more than an enthusiastic amateur with a van and trailer.
For the time being I am just looking for names of organisations that you think might be useful.
