Local Weather
“We have just completed our 10th cycling holiday with Bents and as we have come to expect, everything was, once again, ‘spot on’. The scenic rides, excellent hotels, friendly reps and good organisation always leave us wanting more and waiting eagerly for next years brochure. It is hard to beat the friendly, personal service of a small firm and I would say to anyone thinking of taking a cycling holiday, ‘you can’t beat Bents’.”
H. Powers, South Yorkshire.
