The Globetrotters Club

The travel club for independent travellers.

Cycling Around the World

For all those cyclists out there, the founder of the Globetrotters Club,
Norman Ford is an avid cyclist and has a web site: www.ktc.com/~blodwen which urges
readers to tour the world by bicycle on their own. To give some ideas,
he lists reports on about a dozen bike tours or bike vacations he’s taken
in the past 5 years.

But the real heart of the site is the menu link to “Helpful Websites
for Bicycle Touring” which links to just about every website for
self-reliant bike tourists he could find and covers the world.

Moreover, if you are interested in knowing a little more about the history
of the Globetrotters Club, when you go to Norm’s web site, have a look
at the link at the bottom called www.globetrotters.co.uk which gives you
an idea of what he’s been up to since 1945! It’s great reading!

Norm is happy to answer e-mail queries except during the fourth quarter
of the year when he is away travelling the world by bicycle ~ now
there’s an offer! Norm’ can be contacted via his web site.
