Frequently asked questions

Who will be guiding? We are experienced cyclist, with a deep local knowledge and many hours of training on and off the bike to provide you with a great experience and our main goal will be providing you a great customer service. Where will we be staying? A great cycling experience is only possible staying at the right places. We have cherry picked only the best hotel available. We will stay in a beautiful coffee farm with unique cabins inside the plantation. If I’m renting, what are the bike options? As cyclist ourselves we appreciate a beautiful and efficient bicycle to tackle demanding stages. We rely on Argon’s 18 Krypton bikes to do the job of take you to the summit with relative ease, but we also appreciate their steady manners on the way down. Their geometry is a balanced act that we have come to appreciate a lot over time, and so have our customers. What’s the weather like? Perhaps the most difficult question we have to answer is how’s the weather like. Although there are rainy and sunny seasons in Colombia, mountain weather is extremely unpredictable, and can change in very few kilometers. We would suggest having a wide range of layers available. We can very well be riding at some point during this tour at 32ºC but some other sections the weather can also at 8ºC with rain. Your guides will tell in advance their best estimate of the situation, but even then, there’s not 100% accuracy. We will rely in the support to sort out these situations. What should I bring? Related to the previous answer, it’s going what to bring will depend on personal preferences. However, and trying to keeping it light, there’s a minimum of basic stuff you should plan to bring when it comes down to cycling, but for this trip we would suggest: • 2 bib shorts • 2 jerseys • Arm warmers • Base layer • 1 (rain)jacket • 1 helmet • 1 pair of sunglasses • 1 pair of riding shoes • 2 pairs of socks • (Full finger)Gloves • Sunblock • Bug repellent
