b'In part 2 of the Summer Series 2021, we hear about going on a semi-organised bike journey with Jordan Blanco. If you fancy giving bike touring a go, but you\'re not sure about carrying lots of kit, camping at night or planning your own route, then there are loads of companies that run organised or semi-organised trips and take the stress away, so all you need to do is focus on the cycling and your surroundings. Triathlete and coach Jordan Blanco did an organised ride from Land\'s End to John O\'Groats in the summer of 2019.\\nYou\'ll hear: \\n05:05 Do you need to train to ride 100 miles a day, for ten days?\\n06:15 Why Jordan chose a semi-organised trip and what she needed to carry day-to-day on the bike\\n09:50 Should you stay in B and Bs and hotels or should you camp when you\'re cycle touring?\\n11:50 Why does Jordan enjoy cycling adventures, rather than just triathlon training \'there\'s nothing like being on your bike to see places and connect with places.
