What can I say, a great response, all the hints, tips and links will be very useful I am sure.
My wife and I have done a few 'tours' that feel like 'expeditions' it goes with the disability to a degree.
We have normally had very positive experiences with people normally really being helpful.
In a world that sometimes struggles with the concept of treating all equally, the cycling community has never disappointed.
We wrote an article for the CTC mag a few years ago and we try to get to The Birthday Rides week most years.
It is always the access to transport and accommodation that is the challenge.
We can now, thanks to your suggestions, start using The Web to ask the questions regarding the above.
Any and all further info you think maybe helpful please do not hesitate to contact us.
Many, many thanks
Mike & Rhona

Accessible accommodation along The Danube
Hi all, I am a newbie to the CTC Forum hoping I don't transgress any forum rules.
My enquiry centres around my wife and I hoping to embark on a trip cycling down The Danube this coming summer.
My question really is, with an average daily mileage of 40-50 mile we will need accommodation each day.
The issue that makes this more problematic is that I use a handbike and will need suitable wheelchair accessible accommodation. Unfortunately access to travel accommodation cannot be assumed to be wheelchair accessible, even in todays more enlightened world.
Does anyone out there know of any simple clean reliable accessible accommodation either using a mixture of hotel, hotel chain or B&B??
Any thoughts of how to get to the Danube from the UK boarders using train or ferry/train would be very gratefully accepted as well?
Many thanks in advance
