Two-wheeled training - Tuscany, Italy

Spinning towards the Formentor Lighthouse - Mallorca, Spain

Notes from the road

Fall Follies

It’s easy to keep spinning beyond summer when the roads of Spain and Italy beckon bikers with great weather well into October. Mallorca combines both casual rides among the vineyards and epic climbs up in the Tramuntana Mountains. On the mainland, Andalucia delights, especially when you’re based out of the white-washed Finca Cortesin In Tuscany, the hotel Castello di Casole is perfectly located for two-wheeled training among the Chianti vineyards and cypress trees.
