![]() ![]() Our Pinarello Nytros were very good bikes, although Mary and I agreed that our Specialized Creos are better. The Bike Hotel Guides seem to approach each ride with the desire of completing it as soon as possible, especially the last 20-30 kms! Average speeds I experienced for the last parts of my rides were around 28-32 kms and pauses were rare and usually for photos. When I say guide, it's not like you would expect on a cycle tour. The actual rides change every day but if you stay long enough you will see the same rides offered, but perhaps with a different guide. The Bike Hotel usually offers three rides each day, a classic (40-70 kms), an Enthusiastic (about 90 kms) and an Epic (around 125kms). Mary's bike had a Garmin out front bracket which was great but I was glad I brought my Garmin temporary bracket which worked really well. We brought our pedals and seats with us and it took the mechanics about 20 minutes to set us up. We had signed up for four days of joining guided rides using Pinarello Nytro e road bikes. We arrived at the Garda Bike Hotel beside a major Italian lake called Lake Garda and my right knee was only just beginning to settle down after strain put on it by the weight and configuration of my bike and barge e bike.

Therefore, please use these reviews as a starting point to gain an initial understanding of what is available and what you might experience. A year earlier or later riders would have had a vastly different experience. In relation to the latter, for example, the review from 2013 of the Po River Tour dealt with a tour that was impacted by massive rain and flooding across central Europe and northern Italy. Reviews are both subjective and relevant to the author who wrote them, as are the star ratings.įurthermore, these reviews present the author's opinion at a point in time and with the passage of time companies can change an itinerary, guides can change and conditions on the ground can vary. It can pay to check out the alternatives as this can lead to better prices or a bonus for booking or even access to a better room as companies each pre-book and some may still have rooms that others don't. In some instances you will find that a little searching will identify several companies offering the same tour. Once you open a review that interests you, you can in most cases click on the photo and you will be taken to the webpage for that tour from the company that that we booked with.
