Cycling Summary
Arrival DAY
After checking and sorting out your bike, we will head out on a steady and social 57km heading East of Tavira - a perfect way to ease the travel from your legs
DAY 2
Today is an instagram kind of day. We take in 100km of cycling north of Tavira with 1500m of climbing. Lots of rolling terrain and a couple of little testy climbs along the way should make for a great day out
DAY 3
Ramping it up - whilst the distance of 92km is modest, there is plenty of elevation with 1600m of climbing with a route profile that looks like a staircase.
Day 4
The Queen stage - 140km and 2000m of ascent. Today we use many of the roads used during thjis years Tour of the Algarve as we head north east from Tavira and wind our way through some beautiful countryside. The elevation is not gained in any one signature climb, but a series of beautiful climbs that will suit both Rouleurs and Grimpeurs.
DAY 5
overview
We will have a rider with you throughout to provide guidance on the road and please remember we prioritise smiles over segments ;)

Whilst our ride plan is planned to give you the best experience possible. There is no compulsion on our trips - if you would like to. ride less or more or alone - we completely understand and will support you in any way we can.
