We had such an amazing time. Edwin from Gravel Explore was a top-tier guide/cyclist and made the experience unforgettable. We went with me (35), my brother (40), and my dad (70) for his birthday. There were parts that were slightly challenging, but the view of the countryside was unmatched. Edwin has excellent knowledge of history, wine, and biking. He made it all feel personal and like biking with friends. Could not recommend higher!
