I compete in 35-40 races a season (march-oct). I run winter training camps in Andulusia Spain in January and February. These training camps operate on a low cost affordable price to enable more likeminded cyclists to be able to train in the beautiful sunny Andalusian foothills. Camps run from one week to seven weeks in duration. Accommodation:-
We use comfortable two bedroom mobile homes on a pret
ty campsite on the edge of a lake close to all amenities including several restaurants one of which is situated on the campsite and is open morning to late evening every day. Training:-
We normally meet just before 9 for a coffee in the on site cafe to descuss the days ride. We have several courses ranging from easier one and half hour rides to 4 or 5 hour courses with elevations of 2-3 thousand meters! but equally we have courses that follow the flat coast roads. But all of the courses can be ridden once or twice hard or easy depending on fitness levels and what was completed the day before. I normally train on a two day riding one day rest format, or one day riding one day resting. This depends on the intensity of the training and the weather. Weather:-
Normally the temperatures range from 17-20 degrees, with the occasional day at 12-14. Normally the temperatures are pretty much perfect for training. Rain- it doesn't rain oftern. For example I had only one wet ride in seven weeks! This may involve moving the odd ride from morning to afternoon or simply moving a rest day forward or backwards by a day. It can be blustery sometimes but again by moving the training and resting days, this is not normally a problem. Prices:-
Prices vary depending on the number of people sharing a mobile home (1-3 per mobile home) and the duration of your training camp (1-7 week)
But prices start from as little as 125 euros per week per person. For a quote please contact me by email. Equipent:-
You need to bring cycling clothes shoes and a helmet. You can bring your own bike or hire a bike locally.
