Covid Travel Update July 2021

Beyond having an amazing experience on and off the bike, both your and our European team’s health and safety are our primary concerns.

Our European team is led by Bruno Ramain, the tour leader for both Venetians and Othello. Bruno is a magnificent veteran guide who just returned from pre touring Morocco last week (for Venetian riders you can read the email we sent post this pretour below). He is currently taking a custom group from the USA following the Tour de France. Life is almost back to normal in Europe and North Africa!

The best climb in Tasmania?

If you don’t mind a bit of gravel this would be hard to argue with. Spectacular views, super quiet roads, switchbacks, hors categories climbing…

In 2019 we made this part of our Tasmania – UnderDownunder Odyssey. Prior to this we had bypassed to the north, unwilling to test our roadie crowd on the dirt. However we certainly haven’t regretted the change as it certainly is a climb to remember, up there with the European greats.
