Is this camp for me? ​ The camp is for Level 2 cyclists and to be able to enjoy the rides fully, regular cycling in the months prior to the camp, with some gravel riding is recommended. There will be a mix of gravel roads as well as secondary roads on asphalt. Blois and the surrounding region are not flat and the terrain has its fair share of rolling hills, so expect some short punchy bumps from time to time. We have designed this camp to share our love of cycling in general and to enable you to discover the joys of gravel riding, whilst visiting new places and developing your skills. Most importantly, it is a non-competitive group ride in a welcoming and safe environment.​

Throughout the week and after your ride, you will have the chance to relax and stretch with a light yoga session led by a certified yoga teacher. The stretching and yoga are suitable for all levels, even the stiffest body and no experience is necessary.

400kms with up to 500 metres elevation each day. Please note total distance and elevation may vary depending on weather conditions and the routes chosen at the time.
