 In 2004 we though it would be fun to send a group of club members to view the Tour de France up close and personal. We worked with top tour companies to bring our members this high quality tour at an exceptional value. We sold out both tours that year and over fifty club members were able to experience one of the greatest sporting events of all time. We branched out in 2005, 2006, and 2007 to some new outstanding destinations.
Today we continue to strive to bring great vacation experiences to the table (even without Lance racing!). It's important that you note the Cascade Bicycle Club only markets these tours and does not produce them. For that duty we defer to professional tried and true top tour companies that have staff and operations in the country that they offer tours. We try to work with the best in the business and use our buying power (of 7400+ members) to bring you the very best quality tour for the price. We like to think that we know our members: the way you like be treated and the details that are important; the little things that make a great tour experience. You can read testimonials from some of the happy 200+ riders who have enjoyed out trips on each tour webpage. While our tour destinations change annually, many of our past tour companies continue to offer discounts to club members on their own tours each year, so please ask when seeking booking information.
We are now in our fourth year of promoting International tours and they all feature the same five items in common:
- Interesting destinations with wonderful cycling opportunities.
- The season with the best chance of ideal weather and riding conditions
- Top quality food, accommodations and on-road support.
- Route options for various different levels of rider.
- Best tour for the best price; discounts when possible, but quality comes first.
* Please always check on the cancellation policy before signing up for a tour; always buy independent trip cancellation insurance if you want piece of mind. If you are not a Cascade Bicycle Club member you can sign up for only $25 for a year. We have many members from around the country, so please join the family today!
