I’m starting to put together plans for a biking holiday october-ish

We would want guided/semi guided, mainly uplift supported natural style (dare i say enduro style riding) not big gap jumps etc.

It’ll be a mixed speed group, all on single crown forked bikes, most will be happy riding most trails at their own pace, and if need be doing some pushing every now and again.

Where should be on my list to consider, at the moment, thinking Portugal but would like to consider a few good value options.

Andalucia is an affordable and very pleasant part of Spain, with great weather in October and some awesome trails.

We are based right on the beach, singletrack Enduro riding with plenty of bus uplift during the day & fun après-bike on the coast at night.
http://www.sierramtb.com fantastic biking since 1992

Lake Garda is usually very nice in October.

Madeira…check out freeride madeira for guided rides including uplift. Amazing variation in terrain and avg temp will be in the low 20’s during the day and 15’s or so in the evening.

cheers, there’s some options to investigate 🙂

Were going to Riverabike in Northern Italy for some of that.

Southern Spain? Either Switchbacks or Sierra MTB..

Consider bikingandalucia, Guided and self guided road cycling and mountain biking holidays in the Sierra Nevada mountains, Andalucia, southern Spain, since 1999.

Southern Spain would have to be with Ciclo Montana for me (just for balance 😉 ). Hoping to go back in a couple of years for my 40th 😀

Meanwhile, on two other threads….

Spammer.

Spammer? If you like. I hardly ever come on here, maybe once every 3 or 4 months. If people are asking about trips I think if I reply specifically addressing their question, that is not spamming. Other trip organisers are replying. There are plenty of people on here who can vouch for me. Do you work for free?

How was your reply relevant here? Apart from being lazy copy and paste advertising in an old thread you dragged up?

you are right on that one. I thought it was a question about a bike holiday. I stand corrected there.

Having spoken with the moderators, my post was mistakenly removed, so here it is again. I should point out that I run the trips and stand to benefit by having a great time showing you around. Lake Garda and Finale Ligure, 7 nights (or less or more) self catering or hotel, 6 days riding guiding and 6 days shuttling, from £425 http://www.rebbens.info – give it time to load 🙂
