Backroads was born from the idea that the absolute best way to see a new place, a new landscape, a new corner of the world, was on the seat of a bike. Since 1979, our bike tours have been the core of who we are, and we’ve only gotten better with time. Our thoughtfully crafted cycling vacations have been perfected with decades of experience—from the Rocky Mountains to the Tuscan countryside to the rural villages of Vietnam. Our bike trips are led by expert Trip Leaders who know the most scenic biking routes—far from the crowds and immersed in the beauty of the region you’ve come to discover. Whether it’s wide-open vistas, quaint local towns or simply one thrilling or leisurely bike ride after another, a Backroads bike tour will forever raise the bar on what an active vacation can be.
Backroads, international leader in active travel, has added the latest Van Nicholas Zephyr to their bike fleet. Prized for their quality and precision, the Zephyr bikes are perfect for Backroads' range of active and adventure travel. Currently, the new titanium Zephyrs are on their way to various Backroads locations in Europe, America and Canada. The long-standing successful partnership between Backroads and Van Nicholas continues with this addition to the bike fleet, with choices ranging from collection models to bikes developed specifically for Backroads.
Backroads: "We are delighted to welcome the Zephyr to our Performance Road bike family. Our long-standing partnership with Van Nicholas has always allowed us to choose bikes that fit seamlessly with our philosophy of excellence."
