I have a week off in Sept. I quite fancy getting away for a few days of sunshine on the road bike. I've been to Mallorca and the Alps in the past, so quite fancy somewhere else in Europe this time.
Anyone have any personal recommendations of regions to go to or better still actual hotels/guesthouses to be based at?
Thanks,
Ian
Fuerteventura/ Canary Islands.
Majorca is always good. Plenty of companies and riders go there in Spring time for training camps etc and there's good reason - the roads, terrain and weather are excellent.
Sept will be very warm still but not burning hot like July/August.
If you Google around there's plenty of info about road routes and biking in Majorca.
Italy, somewhere classically Italian, I.don't know Italy but their national sport is cycling and they're fanatical about it. Good pasta, wine and women. Has mountains and coastline. September should be good weatherwise.
Dolomites - stunning but a bit tricky to get to.
Provence for Ventoux - I know an excellent guesthouse too.
Bit of a reading fail there, Digger90!
Central Spain is pretty mountainous, you could do worse than hiring a car and spending a couple of days in [url= http://tinyurl.com/3bl6eoa ]El Escorial[/url], then moving on to [url= http://tinyurl.com/3my4un6 ]Bejar/Hervas/Jerte[/url]. (I've put all three on the map to show you where they are, it's not necessarily the route I'd do!)
