The real Rounds

For additional information, please visit www.RIDE-A-ROUND.cc on the page of the relevant Round.

Where can you find the starting location?

You can start anywhere on the circle.

Are you coming from further away? Then you can start at a real Ronde location, which are mentioned in the Ronde guide, so that you can start or end with a drink and/or a tasty (drink) snack.

For additional information, please visit www.RIDE-A-ROUND.cc on the page of the relevant Round.

Can you cycle the rounds the other way around?

Most Tours are suitable for cycling in reverse.

Sometimes it can be difficult due to ferry sailing times or climbs with cobblestones that you better not descend.

More information about this can be found in the Digital Tour Guide. You will receive this when ordering the Tour Box.

Do you have to cycle the rounds in one go?

You don't have to, you can also do it for several days. Do you do it in one go or do you stay overnight? The choice is yours!

Group discount: If you place multiple Round Boxes for the entire group of 3 people or more in one order, you will receive free shipping + a €5 discount per group member.
