Join us for an amazing cycling adventure where you can either camp for 2 nights and enjoy 3 days riding or join us just for the one of the days! We will be exploring Kent's orchid region the 'garden of England', riding through the rich tapestry of farmland and quaint local villages as well as riding along the pebble shores of Hythe, Folkestone & Whitstable. It's a 2 night camping trip at one of Kent’s best campsites (Knowler Farm), which is next to impossible to get this time of year, but we've got you covered.
