"One day, we stopped at this tiny shop in the middle of nowhere, got some pastries, and chatted (or tried to chat) with the sweetest old lady. She was so excited to have cyclists there! It was such a small moment, but it made the trip feel so real. This wasn’t just about riding it was about experiencing Colombia in the best way possible."

Beatrice Galbreath

Blacksburg, Virginia

"I was nervous about the rides being too hard, but the way they split the groups and supported everyone made it perfect. Some days I pushed myself, some days I took it easy and just enjoyed the views. And the best part? Dropping my bike with the mechanic at the end of the day and just chilling. No stress, just good vibes!"

"I came here for the riding, but I left with so much more. The people, the food, the late-night laughs after long days in the saddle it all made this trip unforgettable. It felt like being part of a big cycling family for a week. I already know I’ll be back next year!"

"I’ve done a lot of gravel riding, but nothing compares to this. Every turn was like a postcard huge mountains, green valleys, little towns that felt like something out of a movie. The climbs were tough, but wow, the descents made it all worth it. If you love riding, you HAVE to do this at least once in your life!"

"After a long day on the bike, all I wanted was a comfy place to relax and this place delivered. The beds were super cozy, the views were unreal, and the whole vibe was just so peaceful. Drinking coffee in the morning while looking at the mountains? Perfection. Honestly, I’d stay there even without the riding!"

Phil Hodge

"I won’t lie I hesitated about the price at first. But after living this experience, I’d pay for it again in a heartbeat. The food, the rides, the support, the incredible people it’s all next level. You’re not just paying for a cycling trip; you’re paying for an adventure you’ll never forget. No regrets!"
