| Description | |||||
| From music
to fashion to mindset, The Beatles didn’t just make hits, they changed
the world. Their music, message, and legacy still resonate across
generations and continents. Named after their legendary studio album,
Abbey Road, this unique bicycle tour across the United Kingdom is not
only a tribute to the band but also to the rich tapestry of landscapes,
cities and histories that shaped them. Spanning more than 2.000
kilometres and traversing England, Wales, the Isle of Man, Scotland and
Northern Ireland, Abbey Road invites cyclists to discover the United
Kingdom in all its geographical and cultural glory - from bustling
cities to remote coastlines and from ancient sites to musical landmarks. Our tour begins in London, the cosmopolitan capital where modern British identity takes root. London is a city of contrasts: Roman ruins rub shoulders with glass skyscrapers, and typical British pubs sit just blocks from world-class museums and galleries. It’s also the city where The Beatles recorded nearly all of their albums at the Abbey Road Studios. On day one, we pay homage to the famous zebra crossing outside the studio - a modest strip of asphalt that has become a mecca for fans around the world. This iconic place, both symbolic and literal, marks the start of our journey: from here, we head westward. Leaving behind the capital’s fast-paced rhythm, we find ourselves cycling through the English countryside, where rolling hills, quiet villages, and hedgerow-lined roads offer a peaceful change of pace. Our first stage finishes in Oxford, a city of dreaming spires and intellectual gravitas. Home to the oldest university in the English-speaking world, Oxford’s cobblestone streets and serene college gardens are steeped in centuries of scholarship. Continuing west, we enter the pastoral heart of southern England. The landscape here is dotted with farms, ancient churches, and meandering rivers. It’s a timeless setting, occasionally interrupted by a thatched cottage or the sight of a red telephone box next to the road. Our route brings us to Stonehenge, one of the world’s most enduring mysteries. From the ancient stones of Wiltshire, we make our way to Bristol, a creative and energetic city where tradition and innovation intersect. With its maritime history, repurposed warehouses, and cutting-edge street art (including works by the elusive Banksy), Bristol exudes a vibe that is at once gritty and inspiring. |
