- If you missed the big news, JOM and Lady Gravel Cyclist (aka LGC) will be joining Trek Travel for their Gravel Bike Tour in the Tuscany region, starting on May 29, 2023 and ending on June 2nd, 2023.
Day One:
"You'll meet your guides in Florence, a marvel of Renaissance art and where you'll find the Uffizi galleries, the Duomo, and the Galleria dell'Accademia, home of Michaelangelo's David. From here you'll take a one-hour private shuttle to the charming town of Villa a Sesta."
"After a delicious Tuscan, picnic-style lunch, you'll be fit to your Trek Checkpoint gravel bike, or Trek Domane Plus eBike, and then we're off on a rolling, scenic ride through stunning cypress trees and to the impressive Abbadia a Monastero, a monastery dating back to the 9th century. We'll arrive at our hotel where you can relax, unpack, and prepare for our first night's dinner and social hour at the hotel."
For those unaware, Trek Travel has been in the business of cycling experiences for many years, mostly on the pavement, but we're very excited to see they've expanded their portfolio into the world of gravel cycling! Trek Travel's gravel bike tours combine mixed-surface roads in the company of guides well acquainted with the area, aboard world class bikes such as the Trek Checkpoint, and the company's e-Bike, the Domane +, a review of which is posted in the link below.

What an EPIC Day One in Tuscany! 🤩
Those views are incredible. Super envious of that trip! Looks like the Trek team are showing you and LGC a proper good time. Will be watching to see the coming vids.
This was a great trip. I went the week before 5/22. So good I might do it again.
I can understand why. I stayed another week, a few days in Tuscany, then up north into Emilia Romagna. Thinking I may spend two months of the year somewhere in Italy when I retire in a few years from the regular gig.
Giorgio! I did a tour with him back in 2017 - great guy!
Welcome in Italy ✌️🇮🇹
Thank you for sharing. I've been waiting for this post!!
You're welcome, Part Two coming soon.
Wow😃
Looks like Trek has it all figured out for you to live la dolce Vita!
Would you recommend this trip if you have limited to no gravel experience but are young and active? We plan to practice for 3 months leading up to the trip. Thanks for the video!
Hello there, thanks for your message. The gravel roads on this trip are not technical in nature. Being active certainly helps, but Trek has eBike options if you need a helping hand for some of the hillier terrain. Good luck, don't forget to use my coupon code if you decide to sign up (posted in the video description).
Wow, this looks fantastic! I am seriously thinking about doing the Girona ride!
Do it! Use my coupon code in the video description to save yourself $200 off your first trip. 😀👌
Giorgio was one of our guides for the Girona. He was the best and I'm sure he took great care of you both. The Girona trip was amazing and if you have the time/resources you should do it.
Heaven! Pls let us know how many miles and feet climbed each day.
You ever considered doing some ride guides in ya hometown ??
