One week on it is hard to believe that this time last Sunday I was just taking the final hairpin at the top of the Stelvio Pass. Looking down from the summit, over the last of the spring snow and down hundreds of metres of tight winding bends and dizzying ravines, is a view that will last a long, long time. As will memories of the rest of the tour, thanks to Dudley’s local knowledge (guided rides included) and excellent company. Accompanied by a great crowd of people, staying in first rate accommodation (with excellent food), and all built around a sportive for the ages, this was a marvellous trip that I would recommend to anyone with a love of cycling and / or Italy. 5 stars all the way!
Great few days in Italy with all the hassle taken care of by Dudley. Hotel was exceptional, Bike transport a doddle, Food was good, Location was perfect. Only two complaints……Dudley has yet to master control of the weather, very disappointing, it rained a lot and then had the audacity to snow at the top of the Stelvio so never got to the top. Pull your finger out Dudley. 😂😂😂 The town of Bormio was lovely, full of great (expensive) shops and restaurants. I came away substantially poorer. Please find somewhere more affordable next time Dudley 😂😂😂😂
In summary an awesome event we’ll served by Dudley and European Cycle Events 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I’ve done a few cycling events in the past which we organised ourselves but this trip everything was sorted for us, all we had to do was book our flight and meet at the airport and everything else was included so we could just enjoy the cycling. The hotel was really nice, secure bike storage with easy access, food was lovely too so didn’t even want to eat out anywhere else! We had a fantastic group and people and Dudley was the perfect host, always keeping us entertained and laughing. Thanks again Dudley, we will definitely see you again sometime soon.

Dudley is a friendly and knowledgeable host. He knows the area, the roads and race. The hotel was fabulous with great food and facilities. Highly recommended. I will be back for more adventures with European Cycle Events
