Bike - Semi Slick

These mountain bike holidays are almost always journeys, some of them extreme in length, such as the 950 kilometre (600 mile) Lhasa to Kathmandu mountain bike ride across the Himalayas. A support vehicle will follow the group on almost all sections of the ride. A mountain bike (usually either a hardtail or a lightweight full suspension model) fitted with semi-slick tyres is ideal for these cycling holidays.
