LANGUAGES: German, English, French and some Italian. KM COVERED EACH YEAR: 13.000 TYPE OF GUIDE: RACE OR MTB? RACE We have noted a lot of interest for the web site Riccionebikehotels.it, the public have taken us by surprise mostly the younger people, don't you think that its a positive factor that the cyclists are interested in using internet? The young people are the future and if the young people have the need to use internet then you are on the right road. The Romagna, the best place for tourists on holiday with the bicycle, the warm welcome, the routes, the fitness, the food and above all the possibility to be always aggiorned with what's going on in your world, these are the ingredients that make this place one the best tourist destinations, what do you think? Italy is very important and many from the north use these words when talking about holidays. The countryside is very important as well a the hospitality. An advantage is the fact that you are very near the Centrex to go shopping a disadvantage could be that in March and April the weather is not very good. The roads have also need to be re passed. Apart from the results obtained up until now, do you think that sympathy and wiliness have there place in your work? As a guide you install a good report with the client. The sympathy is very important The guide who takes it easy every now and again is also very important. As a cyclist guide , what is your stile? Do you choose your routes with the guests, decide at the moment or do you follow a timetable? Do you like to follow your natural rhythm or do you adapt yourself to the capacity of the other tourists who want to enjoy the Romagna and its land scapes? I have tried many systems. More or less I use the system to present the route and then if one need you can introduce some changes. With the small groups I have planned the route together after dinner, to find out where they want to go. The decisions taken at the moment are very important, tiredness and hunger and overall the time one has are not to be under estimated because they can chance everything. The route that is published is hardly ever my route. Would you like to tell us about an outing \ route ( in Romagna, ndr ) that you like particularly ( that is not one of the usual ones)? I like where there are the hills and the mountains and to return home along the route Novafeltria, Urbania-Urbino. In your opinion who are the cyclists that are better prepared\ trained? and also the friendliest ones? In spring time there are those who are better trained , they come in this period to train themselves and they go out a lot. Later on in the year the holidays are the center of attention. The couple are well trained but one has to be careful with the groups because her one can see the difference. Have you any curious stories to tell in regards to the outing with the guests of the Hotel? One of my first outings was with a group of Germans from the north (the first cyclists for the hotel Belvedere!!!) I discovered Torriana on the map by I didn't look very well. I asked them if they wanted to do one last hill and everyone replied yes. So we head off after a while the group was going slower and slower and after we arrived at the top I heard many complaining " if that was a small hill we will follow you everywhere up rocks and mountains but don't bring us up a hill again.
