For those unfamiliar with Pannier, it is a resource and community dedicated to touring cyclists. The Pannier website includes in a ‘Prepare’ section to help cyclists prepare for unsupported tours and a shop dedicated to sourcing the best equipment any touring cyclist may need.
Pannier is now offering two travel bursaries for the most interesting cycle tours during the Spring 2016 touring season. Pannier is awarding one bursary for the UK & Ireland and another for European travel. The aim of the bursaries is to ‘inspire and enable cyclists to dream-up awesome touring plans and pedal off on their own journeys’.
Pannier is currently asking any interested parties to register on its bursary page – www.bursary.pannier.cc. Each successful applicant will receive £250 plus some touring kit from the Pannier shop.
