Teen Bike Tours

Question
Hi,
I'm a 17-year-old looking for a challenging bike tour for older teens this summer. I have anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks and not a whole lot of money, if you know of any cheap ones.  

Answer
Hi Carley,

A well-known organization that runs bicycle tours for teenagers is the Student Hosteling Program (SHP), at www.bicycletrips.com. Another good organization is Hostelling International, at www.teentreks.com.

Adventure Cycling Association is the best known operator of inexpensive bicycle tours (that means camping rather than staying in motels), but they cater to all ages, not just teenagers.

I hope you find a tour to your liking, and have a great time!
