BOOK YOUR TRIP
This was my first supported ride and I won’t dare veer from Horizons Cycling as I’m afraid I would be disappointed. The climbs and descents were challenging as I had hoped, scenery breathtaking, accommodations beyond expectations, camaraderie great, cappuccinos were simply amazing, food superb, and the service was off the charts!
