Enjoy Nature with a Bicycle Vacation – Bike Fans Can Now Book Cycling Trips at fahrrad.de

Esslingen, June 30, 2009. The online shop fahrrad.de has added yet another feature to its site. From now you can book cycling trips with the specialist bicycle shop. Commenting on the new venture, internetstores AG Project Manager Ulrich Spies was enthusiastic about the range of travel possibilities, “Currently, our customers can choose from over 250 different trips. This includes some fantastic trips internationally. This has been made possible through a joint venture with travel agents specializing in bicycle vacations”.

Conceived by internetstores CEO René Marius Köhler, the expansion of fahrrad.de into bicycle holidays means it is now easier for cyclists to enjoy a bicycle vacation. This project in conjunction with other fahrrad.de projects follows the companies philosophy of offering customers a one stop internet portal for all bicycle needs.

The new bicycle vacation program has been launched by the increased popularity in cycling of all ages. Cycling trips are just as focused on serious mountain bike tours through some of the most spectacular forests and woodlands, as road cycling. For sports road cyclists, tours located in the Alps offer not only a great backdrop, but the ultimate cycling challenge. The programs include a real focus on enjoying cycling for all age groups and families. Some classic trips in Germany include relaxed bicycle trips on Lake Constance and along the Danube River. ''To make these tours attractive to all rider levels, these particular rides are designed to be beginner friendly” said Spies. Combining elements of a real vacation, a range of bicycle tours include Water Ferries. Enjoying a bike ride and then relaxing on a boat trip has received particular interest with recent bookings.

With the CEO of internetstores AG finding cycling a way to stay fit and a great excuse to get out with friends, Köhler's is now seeing a real change in attitudes to the notion of a ''holiday''. Where bike tours are becoming a real option for peoples vacations.“Cycling is ideal for exploring a foreign country. Traditional driven holidays are only about the destination and not about the journey, bicycle holidays let you truly get away from it all, connect with your surroundings and relax," said Köhler. The German online bike store fahrrad.de not only offers many of its bike tours in Germany, but also a variety of tours in other European countries. Giving you the complete European experience, tours in Italy, France, Denmark and Belgium have been included. With special tour programs for The Netherlands, where the bicycle is a means of transportation not just sport and leisure.
