  • persons who seek the freedom to determine on which days they'll cycle and for how long a distance they'll cycle,

  • couples that have different levels of cycling skill or enthusiasm, and

  • traveling parties that include non-cyclists and therefore need alternative activities like non-cycling sightseeing excursions.
