Our region is an extremely popular place for road bike enthusiasts to travel.  While they have the apparent feeling of safety, many are not.  Most cyclists and many guides feel is safer because is the cycling even. 
What they probably don’t take into consideration is that Italian road can be very narrow which leaves less room for cars passing bicycles.  Additionally, there are wonderful landscape to admire so motorists will often become inattentive.

Closely Garda'd secret

Cycling up snow-copped mountains then sipping cappuccinos on the beach before lunch - could Italy's Lake Garda be Europe's best kept cycling secret? This was the question of one of the most important cycling magazine of Europe "Cycling plus". The replay is easy: YES IT IS! This is a stunning place,where 2000- meter-high rugged peaks and sheer cliff lean over the postcard picturesque Lake Garda.

Amazing view of the Lake from Monte Baldo peak road
The place where several Pro has decide to live for the special climate that you can find all year around. There is no other place where you can find so many other cyclist. Main lake coastal road is the ideal start for any ride on the mountains above. You will find my enthusiasm for this region infectious. Within the space of few hours it dishes up the full gamut of cycling pain and pleasure - challenge and payback. From the wine-flanked lanes by my place to tough, torturous switchback climbs, roof-of-the world mountaintop view, endless breathtaking descents- same fast and same technical - to, finally, the ultimate cake stop payoff: Caffe e Gelato, the just rewards of coffee and ice cream on the glamorous Lake Garda. Came to visit the Cyling Nirvana, you could chose between grate riding for any cyclist level.
Haw to arrive? The nearest airport is Verona Catullo, which is only 10km from Valpolicella and 20 to the lake and is served by British Airways and Ryanair. 
So what are you waiting book your spring brake!
