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?
When they call me to organize a run in mountain bike the evening before I get together with the clients And we decide the route: the villages that they want to visit, the distance that they want to run, the parting time.
Apart from the results obtained up until now, do you think that sympathy And wiliness have there place in your work?
During the run I usually keep in contact with the slower ones to understAnd how I can plan the ittinery.The best thing for big groups is to have available two or more guides so one can form two or more groups that can get together once And a while to have a snack or a chat.
Have you any curious stories to tell in regards to the outing with the guests of the Hotel?
I would like to tell you about a run with a group of 27 English ( the guide was friendly Irene from oxford). The run took place around the natural park, Sasso Simone e Simoncello. Its a wonderful place, the itinerary was not very difficult even though it was wet.. The only problem was the bus ride to Carpegna, how could we manage to bring our bikes with us the problem was solved with the great idea to store the loom of the bikes in the boot of the bus and each person took his own wheels and held them on his lap for the journey.
