Bike touring is a form of travel that involves riding a bicycle over long distances, often for several days or weeks. Cyclists carry their gear, such as clothing and camping equipment, on their bikes or in trailers. This allows them to explore various landscapes, towns, and attractions at a leisurely pace. Touring can take place on paved roads, dirt paths, or dedicated bike trails. Many cyclists enjoy the freedom and adventure of bike touring, as it combines physical activity with the opportunity to experience nature and local cultures. It is popular among both recreational riders and serious cyclists.
