Tuesday 8th September took the Aviva Tour Of Britain from Cumbria into Scotland, with Cockermouth hosting the start before the stage headed along the Cumbrian coast, through Carlisle and into Dumfries & Galloway. After heading into the Scottish Borders, Hawick, Selkirk and Melrose all welcomed the race before the finish at Floors Castle outside Kelso.
Stage three saw Elia Viviani (Sky) take his second stage victory of the race on the fast run in to Floors Castle, but the biggest drama came as race leader Petr Vakoc (Etixx – Quick-Step) lost his hold on the yellow jersey.
We can fully support your ride from start to finish and supply bike transport to the start point and collection from the end point. Baggage transfers can also be arranged and delivered to your chosen accommodation along the route ahead of your arrival.
Eco Cycle Adventurest has capabilities to cater for all sized groups.
Our fleet comprises of cars, mini buses and mini coaches, fully equipped with specialised bike trailers and top of the range Thule bike carriers. We regularly service many popular routes with 8 – 16 & 22 people with bikes, but we have capacity to take up to 70+ at one time.
Some people will complete this cycle route in pairs and others rely on the camaraderie of larger groups, some as big as 100.
Our team, some with first aid training and with a general knowledge of bike mechanics (on request) are enthusiastic, friendly and eager to help.
We will transport you, your bike and bag to the start point of Stage Three of the Tour Of Britain 2015.
As you cycle, we will transfer your luggage to your chosen accomodation ahead of your arrival.
After you have completed Stage Three of the Tour Of Britian 2015, we will greet you with a smile and a well-deserved pat on the back and transport you, your bike and bag home.
If you have left your own transport at the start or end of the Stage, we can also provide a one-way transfer back to your vehicle.
Our transfer packages for riders, bikes and bags will vary depending upon whether you're collected from your home, mulitple collection points, transport hubs, or the amount of people travelling in your group.
Firstly, if you need to be transported to the start of the cycle route you're about to embark, you need to establish where you would like to be collected with your bike & baggage. Also, will this be one point for all or does each of your group require separate collections from different points?
Next, depending on the length of your cycle route and the number of days you're cycling will dictate how many stop-overs you require. Find this out and we will collect your baggage and take it ahead of your arrival to your chosen accomodation, then collect it the following day and do the same for the duration of your cycle route. At the end of the ride, we will collect you and your group with bags and take you bake to your pre-arranged drop-off point, again this may be one point for the whole group of individual drop-off's.
All of our transfer packages for riders, bikes and baggage and individually priced with all of the above taken into consideration. We are very competitive and take care with each enquiry having already transported thousands enthusiastic riders and their individual bikes and even more bags.
