Before starting the trip, is it good for all of us to check our own preparation, bicycles, and briefings. Our first ride takes 4kms single track on the rice fields, along quiet roads through Ubud’s rice paddies and an insight into local life. During cycling 8kms through the tranquil village and rest stop at the surreal Tegallalang Rice terraces. Continue on through Bali’s verdant countryside before experiencing our first taste of traditional Balinese cuisine at a local family-run warung (Indonesian café) in kilometer 20. From here we cycle on a further 1km to the thousand-year-old Tirta Empul temple. Dedicated to Vishnu, the Hindu God of water, this one of the largest water temples in Indonesia. As a holy site only local Balinese can bathe in the waters but you are free to explore the temple grounds, including the peaceful Jeroan section or the calm waters of the Koi Pool. After visiting Tirta Empul we slowly make our way back to Ubud, (approx. 16 kms, mostly downhill until finish point) taking quiet roads back past lush rice fields.
