Cycling tourism

Take three friends, who cannot be called cyclists, as they are not the type of cyclists, but who love life, being together in loyalty, the beauty of nature, the good food and a sincere and not superficial conversation.

Take the favorable weather of this October 3, 2019, which was sunny, cool and with a slight breeze not bad at all.

Consider that there is the Oglio park right there, or rather a few pedal away, which invites us to cross it and here is the formula for a really beautiful and fulfilling day.

The most beautiful bike tours are those experienced with friends of all time, stainless and irreplaceable companions of adventure.

In the shop, people often ask me for advice on bike tours on Lake Garda, but rather than just provide a route, this time I have the pleasure of sharing a real travel story.

With me in this adventure on the Risorgive cycle path, two old friends, Gianni and Domenico.

This short story was written by one of them, Gianni, who was able to express in an excellent way the emotions and the fun that we shared. Enjoy the reading!

Are you approaching the world of cycle tourism for the first time and don't know where to start? Don't panic, I can tell you that you are not the only one!

Perhaps the idea of a bike trip makes you think that you will need many accessories, a high-performance bike and maybe even be well trained.

Actually, getting started is much easier than you think! You're not getting ready for the Tour de France, but this is only your first bike trip.

Prepare your bike well, bring only the essentials and plan a route not too demanding. What else? Let go of all your worries and have fun!

The Paris Brest Paris randonnée is one of those challenges that remain inside of you. 1,230km of effort, sweat and excitement and just 90 hours to complete the route.

It is certainly not an adventure for rookies and to participate you need to prepare yourself as well as possible, starting from the qualification.

If you like challenges and want to be part of this adventure, you are in the right place. I will explain the main steps that will lead you to face this difficult and fascinating path through the French hills.

If you qualify, you will have a unique experience together with 5999 other participants, equally crazy and in love with this wonderful sport that is cycling.
