Riccione Cycling Tour (Italy) – Discover The Joy of Riding The Adriatic Coast

by Bob Murphy

One of my favourite cycling experiences in Europe was a week spent cruising the hills around Riccione, Italy. Riccione is located on the Adriatic Sea, 80 miles south of Venice. The hills around the area offer great cycling on well-paved roads. Motorists are especially bike friendly.

Accommodation For Cyclists

The city has at least twelve hotels catering specifically to cyclists. They supply everything you need to make your stay a joy. Most of the hotels have a fleet of quality, well-maintained bikes for rent. They also have a staff of seasoned ride leaders who plan rides specifically geared to the needs and abilities of their guests.

A typical day starts with a bountiful breakfast. After the ride, a buffet is available with salads and pasta. Most of the hotels also offer luxurious spas to soothe your aches and pains. In the evening a great meal awaits with complimentary wine. You really feel pampered.

Cycling Tours – Great Value For Money

The amazing thing is the cost – which can run as little as $600 a week and includes meals, lodging and guided tours.
