We always take the necessary precautions to ensure that our guests bikes are safe over night but that being said, it is ultimately your responsibility to ensure your bike is locked, alarmed and even possibly covered if you wish.

We operate a ‘2nd man drop off’ system. If you’re a seasoned rider, then you’ll know
this system well. We use it as it keeps the group moving and there’s no waiting
around for riders to catch the group up. When riding in larger groups on main roads
we like to have everyone in a more staggered formation so you’re not flicking stones
directly at the person behind you bike or their visor.
On our riding days, we can either split the group down into a faster and slower group
or we can all go out together. We will still operate the same ‘2nd man drop off system’
however, on the longer stretches of roads we will allow for riders to ‘stretch their legs’
if they so wish to. No-one overtakes the lead rider unless signaled to.
Everyone will be added to a Whats-app group so if for and reason you get split up
from the group you can let us know you are safe. You will all have the route given to
you each day and we will give you all GPX files for the riding days if you have a GPX supporting device.
You do not need to stay in the group to enjoy your riding holiday, if you prefer to go off on your own and meet up at the accommodation each night, that is absolutely fine by us…. its your holiday after all.
Join us on this 13 night adventure to the Pyrenees. This tour boasts incredible roads which twist and turn that should excite the most seasoned rider.
We promise amazing scenery, food and culture from start to finish.
