Hi again all,

Still trying to decide on a week's biking in March - anyone have any experience of these guys, and care to share with the group...?

TIA

Yep, went last summer, thoroughly enjoyed it. Cracking riding and excellent company. Did the over-nighter in Granada, definitely worth it. Pals of ours have been well over a dozen times between them...

Used them a few years ago. Should the opportunity arise to get away again then that's the company I'd go back to. The riding, guides and Jackies cooking were all fantastic.

I was with them for the 4th time last week. Still great! The hosts are excellent as is the riding.
The little pool is really nice but wouldn't be useable as early as March.

Mackem. I fell off lots & the pool made me shiver (in July).

Only negatives I can think of.

Oh, and +1 on the Granada overnighter...

I was there 9 years ago. Ace riding, proper big day adventures and very tech. Mark was a great guide and the scran was made for people who'd been riding bikes for 8 hours ๐Ÿ™‚

Lots of punctures tho

Was there in October for my 2nd trip with CicloMontana.

Seriously, can't praise them enough. Everything you want and need from a biking trip and nothing you don't. The location is stunning, with an amazing amount of trails, the accomodation great - although the pool is fed from a glacier i'm sure! ๐Ÿ˜‰
The guiding is top notch and the evening meal is a lovely idea, other companies often expect you to forage for yourself in the evening but Marco and Jackie lay on a good spread with wine - all eaten in their apartment or on the patio depending on the time of year.
To be honest, some of the riding is too much for me but how am i supposed to get better if i don't keep going back? ๐Ÿ˜†

Can't wait to go again.

I've been with Ciclo 4 times. Would go back in a moment. I love the area, love the riding, love the food, love the craic with Marco and Jacky ... it's just great. I would give it the highest recommendation.

In April, me and 4 mates are doing the Ciclo Moroccan trip ... can't wait ๐Ÿ™‚
