IS THIS TOUR FOR ME?

Yes!

Yes! Our Girona women’s cycle camp is an inclusive itinerary for female riders of all abilities – from those just getting started with road cycling to those preparing for competition.

There are two ride groups to choose from each day – Group 1 will cover a shorter distance at c. 15 – 20 kmph. Group 2 will cover a longer distance at c. 20 – 25 kmph. All climbs will be ridden at the riders own pace – offering those who want to push themselves further the freedom to do so, and those who prefer to take it easy can do so without pressure. In between the climbs experienced (female!) guides will set a pace that is comfortable for all members of the group.

There is also the opportunity to work on group riding skills, descending, cornering and climbing technique.

Don’t forget our support vehicle will never be from the group should you wish to take a break.

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.
