How fit do you have to be to join a More Than 21 Bends Cycling Holiday
 

 

Your level of fitness

Each Tour has a set of chainsets under the main title. This is our grading system to show you the difficulty of the riding and the typical length of any ride that will take place on that tour. Most of our rides take place in the high mountains and this can seriously decrease the length of ride that you are able to do. For example Alpe d'Huez is a 14KM climb and can take anything between 45 minutes and two hours.  If you are concerned about your abilty please contact us before making a booking.
