Our fully supported tour takes cyclists from wide open farm fields, past stunning overlooks of our lakes, to cavernous water-carved gorges, National Historic Sites as well as award winning wineries. The Long Route appeals to those riders who love the challenge of a 60-75 mile ride per day. The Regular Route, typically 40-50 miles per day, tends to attract newer riders & those who plan on spending the day leisurely browsing the markets & attractions along the way. Many riders even switch back & forth between routes during the week, making the Bon Ton the perfect tour! Check out the website below for more info and to register.
