Locks, Docks, Ferries and Dykes Tour

From sea-battered medieval dyke villages to the gallows field of the Golden Age, ignored until the late 19th century when the North Sea Canal's dredgings were dumped to create more land for ship docks and laborers Amsterdam Noord has, until the recent waterfront development with the EYE Film Museum, been considered the city's backward sibling.

The 'Locks, Docks, Ferries and Dykes Tour' will take you through the development of Amsterdam as a harbor on the IJ, crossing the former sea inlet by ferry to Amsterdam Noord, past former squatted shipyards, along quaint old village dykes, across the Oranje ship locks past heralded modern architecture back into the city center.

Ogliastra means unspoiled nature, and the opportunity to ride in the middle of the National Park of Gennargentu, one of the ancient, well protected and wildest areas of Sardinia. The area offers a wonderful sea coast, and majestic mountains: you will have the opportunity enjoy both coast and mountain rides. Our programme is split into 2 x 3 day sections, one on the coast of Tortolì-Arbatax, and the other in the middle of the Gennargentu mountains, located in Villagrande.

This Training Camp excels in mountain rides, never too extreme but nevertheless averagely challenging. We recommend this training camp to those who love climbing, or who want to improve their climbing skills in the quietest area. The 'Wow factor' of this Camp, is the climb to the highest mountain in Sardinia, Bruncu Spina, which peaks at 1650 m, an unforgettable cycling adventure.
