Can I do the riding?
• Can you ride 50-75km on the flat?• Are you are a weekend warrior?
• Do you like social rides?
• If you answer YES to any of the above – you can do this. – Most of the riding is on flat courses.
– We don’t race.
– We’ll ride as a group most of the time and stop often for photo’s or to see the sights.
– On the mountains you’ll ride at your own pace and regroup regularly.
– We have plenty of rest days built into the itinerary to watch stages of the race, etc
– That said if you are a good cyclist – there are plenty of Col’s to test yourself on.
