Creative Catalonia
has teamed up with Girona Cycling to create this
specialist road riding tour. The tour is aimed at cyclists preparing for
their up coming seasons. You will enjoy a high level of coaching, with
training sessions specifically tailored to your own specific needs and
fitness levels. Please note a few of our special camps carry an extra
charge to cover the costs of an invited coach.

For cycling you will enjoy beautiful
scenery while riding on quiet, well maintained roads. The weather is perfect
for riding almost the whole year-round and you have the Pyrenees, the
Garrotxa Volcanic National Park and the Mediterranean all
within cycling distance (this is the training ground of a 7-time Tour de
France winner). Every ride will be lead by an expert cycling coach, and
because our group sizes are small we can tailor the rides to personally fit
your fitness and training level.
At certain times of year, there is the
option to compete in local cycling, or cyclo-tourist races. An international
race license may be required and we need to be informed well in advance if
you wish to take part. We also arrange day trips to watch the major tours,
for example the Tour de Catalonia in May, the Tour de France in July and the
Vuelta d'Espana in September.
Clubs, teams and groups are very welcome.
We are flexible enough to provide a completely custom trip to specifically
fit your groups needs. Please
contact us to discuss your
requirements and for available discounts.
Rental Bikes.
Brand new Planet-X road bikes are now available for rent. They all
come equipped with an ergomo power meter.
We can arrange camps at any time and for
any time length to fit your requirements. You can also extend any of our
special camps to ten days or 2 weeks, if you wish.
