Cycle Tour notes
This year’s tour saw us venturing out of Europe looking for adventure and better value outside the Eurozone. We managed to find budget flights from Luton to Kutaisi in Georgia. These flights served the Black Sea resort and Skiing and holidays. Our rough plan was to cycle to Tbilisi and maybe beyond if time allowed.
The key part was to catch the overnight train back to Kutaisi from Tbilisi in order to pick up our return flight.
