Choosing a Tour Based on Your Cycling Ability is Easy with Ciclismo
When choosing a bicycle tour to book, there are a number of factors to consider. In addition to selecting the dates and location that is most convenient for you, you also need to factor in your cycling ability. Some tours are designed for advanced cyclists and if you’re not as athletically inclined as your peers, you’ll have trouble keeping up with the group.
Here are the different levels of skills you’ll see listed when booking a bicycling tour with Ciclismo Classico:
- The terrain is flat and the average number of miles you’ll ride is 18 to 35 miles. This is a great way to build up stamina, familiarize yourself with the way tours work, and see beautiful countryside.
- Athletic Beginner. These tours offer flat and rolling terrain and they cover 35 to 45 miles. If you’re the type of cyclist that gets out on your bike two to three days a week, you shouldn’t have any trouble keeping up with the rest of the group. You’re only a tour or two away from going even longer distances.
- You’ll experience rolling and hilly terrain on tours that are designated for this skill level of rider. You’ll also travel 40 to 50 miles on a trip so prepare accordingly. You can gradually increase the distance you ride at home in anticipation of this bicycle tour.
- Experience hilly and long climbs on Advanced tours. You’ll travel 45+ miles and enjoy rugged terrain. This is a great way to see places that you wouldn’t be able to see on one of the less athletic rides.
- Family Bike Tour. Perfect for multiple riders from the same family, this type of tour is flat and covers 18 to 30 miles. It’s a way to see the world together with your loved ones and create beautiful memories along the way.
As you build skill, don’t hesitate to book a tour that matches where you’re currently at as a cyclist. It takes time to become an expert but that doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy a beginner or immediate level tour in the process. We’ve got plenty of exciting options for you to choose from so you can travel far and travel often by bicycle.
