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 aboveyou can do this. Most of the riding is on flat courses.
We dont race.
Well ride as a group most of the time and stop often for photos or to see the sights.
On the mountains youll 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 cyclistthere are plenty of Cols to test yourself on.
