EPIC SHORT CYCLING BREAKS For advanced cyclists
 

Challenging but social short breaks for advanced cyclists

Epic short breaks are designed for riders who know they can ride 3 or 4 days back to back in mountainous terrain, covering greater distances, typically those who take part in cyclosportive's, Gran Fond, or L' Etape du Tour. They are designed to be great fun, and considered social events. If you're looking for a different challenge check out Gran Fondo

We recommend that you contact us to discuss the requirements and profile for each package before booking.

RIDE ALGHERO - Epic guided short break

The best riding in the Mediterranean, great socials and Alghero's historic walled town. Our flagship Epic package offers a unique cycling experience, combining many of the lung-bursting climbs and hair raising switch backs featured in the 07 Giro d' Italia and Giro d' Sardegna with great weather, traffic free roads and the hospitality on offer inside the old town walls.

Profile Ideal for advanced cyclists and great preparation for a cyclosportive, Gran Fond, or L' Etape du Tour. The itinerary mirrors many of the routes used on our Sardinia training camps, which have also appeared in by the Giro d' Italia, Giro d' Sardegna and local road races. The pace is intended to be sociable, and although we do anticipate the occasional adrenaline rush we also do cafes & lunch stops and evenings of traditional cuisine and local hospitality. We can also tailor this package for private groups

Itinerary It is usually possible to arrive Friday evening and depart Monday evening, allowing for 3 full days riding. Day 1 To suit travel schedule. Day 2 128km or 168km Over rolling terrain to the forested limestone headland of Capo Caccia, the on to the traffic free roads and the unspoiled terrain of the Nurra region.
