Pyrenees cycle experience

The peloton of the Tour de France has no time to enjoy the beautiful valleys and mountains of the central Pyrenees, or its authentic villages, and great places to stay with interesting regional cuisine. This often visited location of Le tour will see you share their cycling challenges but travelling at our own pace, then we are able to relax each evening in a way they can only dream of. If you love cycling and you love a challenge, but are not superhuman, this is the experiance for you - and one you will remember for all the best reasons.

 

The city of Mirepoix is located in the south-west of france classed as the region Midi-Pyrénées, approx 1 hour from Toulouse (The nearest airport).

Girona is a city in Spain’s northeastern Catalonia region. It’s known for its medieval architecture, walled Old Quarter (Barri Vell) and the Roman remains of the Força Vella fortress.

 

This four day cycle experience will see us cycle from Mirepoix (France) down to Girona (Spain), it will take you through some of the most stunning cycling countryside, in what can only be described as breathtaking scenery.

Not about speed this experience is about cycling with friends (Or new friends) at a modest speed just enjoying being in the saddle, finding and exploring, where ever we happen to find ourselves.

We will spend each day cycling approx 50/60 miles , the late afternoons and early evenings,enjoying some fine food and wine

With accommodation (TBC) and breakfast included, with plenty of scope for long lunches and numerous coffee stops on our routes.
