In today’s video I travel to Italy, where Nicola one of the family owners of Garda Bike Hotel, encourages me to try something completely new! Gravel – beautiful white gravel a la Strade Bianche! Plus some off road action and exploration on the hotel’s Pinarello Grevil Bikes. It being Italy, we take care to also explore some of the beautiful local medieval towns and villages (Borghetto, Volta Mantovana and the Gonzaga Palace, plus Valeggio Sun Mincio and the Castello Scaligero). The regions of Verona and Lombardy are as ever magnificent – laying on evocative autumn mists and leaves, to compliment the white gravel, vineyards and decaying medieval architecture. I discover why gravel is a lot of fun !!
This is not a paid promotion, but I am very grateful to Nicola and Garda bike hotel for making me feel so welcome once again, and it would be remis of me not to mention that Garda Bike Hotel is also organising a wonderful package to travel to Tuscany in early March to explore the area, sample the food and wine, and then watch the pros ride the Strada Bianche on the Saturday 5th March followed by taking part in the Strada Bianche Gran Fondo on Sunday the 6th March, using the hotel’s Pinarello Grevil bikes !!
