IS THIS TOUR FOR ME?
This Ride Camp is all about enjoying long, steady miles over the off-season to prepare for the season of cycling ahead. Riders are welcome to ride at their own pace on any climbs, and guides will set a steady pace in between. We are experienced at adjusting rides to suit different rider levels within a group. Please give us a call if you have any doubts or questions.
We can customise the ride itinerary for groups of 6 or more riders and make this a custom camp.
