Days are spent on the bike, moving between towns and sights rather than sitting in a vehicle. The Mandalay–Bagan routes follow the Irrawaddy River and finish among the temples of Bagan. The Bagan–Inle Lake route takes in Mount Popa on the way and ends with a boat trip on Inle Lake, the lake known for rowers who stand on one leg to row. The 10-day Bangkok to Yangon trip traces the World War II Death Railway from Thailand into Myanmar.

Shorter rides work the same way on a smaller scale. The full-day Mandalay ride heads first to Amarapura and stops at U Bein Bridge, the longest teak bridge in the world. The half-day Mandalay Village Ride is led by a Burmese cycling guide who takes riders out to see everyday life in the villages around Mandalay.

Guides are local and Burmese, and the operator's stated aim is to show visitors the country as it is — the culture, the food, the unspoiled nature and the scenery — rather than a staged version of it. The team says it has over 19 years of experience running adventure tours in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam.

They also handle charity events. In March 2016 they ran a Bangkok to Yangon charity cycling trip along the Death Railway for 43 cyclists, raising money for a UK charity — the third charity ride they had organised for that group.

The company holds a Ministry of Tourism licence (No. 342-12) and is registered under Company Registration No. 5000 MOC/D/REG. It received an International Star for Leadership in Quality award in the Gold category in Paris in June 2014.
