Welcome to the Côte d’Azur!
We leave the market square in Beaulieu-sur-mer, an elegant coastal town between Nice and Monaco, and in less than a minute we’re spinning along the coast towards Italy. The deep blue Mediterranean is on our right, cliffs tower above us to our left…this is where the Alps, having described a massive arc taking in Slovenia, Austria, Germany, Italy, Switzerland and France, finally plunge into the warm sea.
We’ll tackle a 1,250m alpine climb later in the day, but for now the road rolls gently around the coastal contours. The sun warms bare arms, fresh sea air fills our lungs. The anticipation of an epic day on the bike.
My companion pulls alongside, looks at me with the widest grin, and says:
“It just doesn’t get any better than this.”
Join us for a cycling adventure to savour!
Guided rides: Perhaps you are coming down to the South of France on holiday with the family, or perhaps in the area on business, and you’re looking to escape for a day on the bike, maybe even just a couple of hours? Perfect…join us for a guided ride or two. More >>
Single-centre cycling holidays: Perhaps you are coming down simply to cycle? Even better! With so much variety on the doorstep, there is no need to move from one place to the next each day; you can ride every day for a month on different roads!
We organise everything for you: airport transfers, cyclist-friendly B&B accommodation in Beaulieu-sur-mer or Nice, and then ride with you each day to showcase the very best roads the Côte d’Azur has to offer.
Settle in, relax, and enjoy the cycling! More >>
Fully-supported cycling tours: If your preference is to tour around the region and to stay somewhere different each night, then join one of our fully-supported cycling tours. We’ll carry your luggage from one place to the next, whilst “leap-frogging” you in the van along the route during the day to provide refreshments and the opportunity for you to off-load or take on extra kit. More >>
Event-based cycling holidays: Perhaps you are competing in the Nice Ironman, or participating in one of the many fantastic local cyclosportives or races, or you fancy watching the professionals at close quarters in Paris-Nice or Milan-San Remo, then join one of our event-based cycling holidays. If you’re competing, we’ll get you to the right place at the right time; if you’re spectating, we’ll cycle with you to the best places to watch. More >>
Corporate cycling days: What better way to network with clients, or to reward loyal and high-performing staff, than on a bike ride on the Côte d’Azur? Entice prospective customers to spend time with you by offering them something a bit different for a change!
This is a shared experience like no other; whether you offer a gentle meander along the coast, or a more challenging excursion into the hills, or both, it offers the perfect environment in which to build new business relationships or cement existing ones…a talking point for years to come. We deliver corporate events for organisations attending conferences, exhibitions and trade shows in Cannes, Nice and Monaco, such as MIPIM, MIPTV, Cannes Film Festival, MIDEM, MIPCOM and others.

Bike hire: Bring your own bike, or rent one from us. We have a fleet of full-carbon Trek road bikes, or we can source hybrid bikes if you prefer. More >>
