On this tour we are traveling in the mountains, there will be several longer climbs, possibly with steep parts. The resulting long descents are also very challenging. Every participant should have the necessary technical skills to safely ride the bike in the mountains. Good endurance is also important for this tour.
Where possible, the routes lead along minor streets or tarred cycle paths. However, cycle paths are the exception on pass roads, and increased traffic should be expected here.
All types of bikes are welcome, regardless of whether you are on a racing bike, trekking bike, mountain bike or even a pedelec. Depending on the number of participants, we have several teams (at least 2) with different speeds and distances.
The Global Biking Initiative wants to show you the most interesting places in Europe the sportive way. We are proud of our international participants, that makes it easy for everybody to make new friends from other countries. Our main goal is the continuous support of charity projects worldwide. We achieve this by engaging the participants to raise funds, that support charity projects in their home countries.
