Following a request from some Australian and New Zealand cyclists, we have added another date for our Great War Battlefields tour.

Our tour takes its usual popular route and already passes many sites commemorating the brave actions of these two nations such as Fromelles and Passchendaele; we also also add on an excursion to Villers Bretonneux and Le Hamel.

The sacrifices made are still being discovered today; here is the grave of a New Zealand soldier just discovered and buried at Messines in late February 2013. The Kiwis attacked from the valley beyond the trees; the objective, Messines village, is behind the camera.
