Is there a better long weekend of riding than this? Starting on the beach in Cattolica on the Adriatic, we ride into the heart of Emilia Romagna taking in some of the climbs of the Nove Colli before heading to Tuscany with some gravel roads, rolling hills and sleepy hilltop villages. We finish on Saturday evening on the Tuscan coast in time to watch the sunset with a glass of prosecco. A perfect long weekend of riding.

Our Cycling Weekenders are time efficient cycling breaks exploring the most iconic cycling locations made famous by the Grand Tours and the Monuments. Running from Wednesday to Sunday, you'll stay in one place and you'll have 4 epic fully supported days on a bike. Our Weekenders Series includes: the Stelvio, the Dolomites, Mont Ventoux, Flanders and coming soon are Alpe d'Huez and Angliru. We offer dates throughout the year but groups can contact us for any date.

Our Italy Coast to Coast Tour is a 4 night break riding from the sandy beaches of Emilia Romagna to the Tuscan Coast across Italy's stunning interior. This small group raid is led by our expert guides & support vehicles. We all ride together on the flats and at our own pace on the climbs. Afternoons are spent relaxing with a couple of beers and some amazing local food.

We move around each night on our Italy Coast to Coast. Starting on the Adriatic coast in Cattolica, our hotel is a family run 4* hotel with excellent food. Moving onto the spa town of Bagno di Romagna our hotel has a great wellness area and even better food. Into Tuscany we stay out in the hills before the last evening on the coast. A mix of 3 & 4* hotels seeing the best of this part of Italy.

Tour Highlights

Ride the rolling hills of the Nove Colli: Our ride starts in beautiful Emilia Romagna, home of the popular Nove Colli. We take on two of the hills from this famous Gran Fondo on the training roads of Marco Pantani.

The famous Tuscan white roads: Nearly all of this ride is over smooth tarmac but being in Tuscany we can't resist a short spin on the strade bianche. The gravel roads here are legendary due to L'Eroica and the new classic season starting pro race.

The World's Best Food!: Emilia Romagna & Tuscany both claim to be the food capitals of Italy, and therefore the world. Fill your boots on guilt free calories and judge for yourself which region is the best.
