    RIDE PER DAY

    First things first, before you continue reading: we are riders, we love to ride bikes, and it is what we do in our free time!Furthermore, we are trail-builders and we love to guide you through the trails that we know, maintain, and love. Because we live in the area and ride so often, we know which descents have the best conditions at all times. That is to say, that conditions are not always predictable as they are ever-changing depending on weather conditions. It is because of this, that we unfortunately cannot promise a “fixed” schedule for these days. Do not despair though, because what we can promise, is that we will do absolutely everything possible so that you enjoy an unforgettable experience!

    TECHNICAL AND PHYSICAL LEVEL

    Although most of the steep climbs will be done by van, a good physical level is required in general, because there are many days in a row, accumulating meters of downhill.

    It is mandatory to be able to ascend about 400 meters per day and to have a level to comfortably descend red trails, and to be able to have experience on days with more than 2000 meters of descent.
