- Leonardo· October 8th, 2024This tour exceeded our expectations; which were high to start with. The Chain Gang did a great job of organizing this tour as every day got better with something more exciting to experience than the day before. Tim (our guide) can be summed up in three words: competent, prepared, and funny! The bikes that they have are good for the job (T-bar Treks) and they provide you with everything that you might need for your trip; e-bikes available. If you are looking for a well-organized and memorable trip, this one could be for you!Show more

- David· September 14th, 2023This is the fifth tour we’ve done. The tour guides were excellent and there was just the right balance between interesting cycling and tours of champagne houses and places of interest. Thanks to Bernard and Sam for guiding us and finding some great restaurants for the evenings. It was also great to get to know other guests from around the world; N Ireland, Australia, Brazil, Finland and the USA. Now home and time to put all that expertise in Champagne tasting to the test!Show more
