Most Inspirational Moment
The cycling part of the holiday started with a long climb on the island of Hwar, it was a steady hill and the whole group made it to the top for a nice lunch of traditional Croatian food. This was the first of many hills and gave a flavour of what was to come. The scenery was spectacular throughout the trip when we could see it through the driving rain!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our group leader, Dino, was excellent. He was sociable and quickly got to know all members of the group. He organised the group in a laid back way so that not much time was spent on briefings but everyone had all the information they needed about the cycling each day. On the optional day he lead a small group of us on an additional ride which included some tough climbing. This was much appreciated as the suggested optional itinerary had been cancelled due to the weather. Our driver, Jadran, cold not have been more helpful and was a very careful driver.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Take plenty of wet weather gear even if you are expecting sunshine.
None of the hills are too steep, easily manageable for most cyclists.
The handlebar bags are spacious but not waterproof, take a dry bag to line them with.
