This Senior Bike Week is aimed at people over 50 who enjoy cycling in beautiful countryside on challenging routes. Whether you want to prepare for an event or just enjoy cycling, this week is a great way to end your year. You will ride in different level groups, depending on your strength and fitness.
Training
The island offers a variety of terrains, with various climbing and undulating roads, making Lanzarote the perfect place to cycle and improve your training. You will explore different parts of this beautiful island, climbing Fémes where you can choose the very steep side or the gentler but still challenging climb and the beautiful 10-km Tabayesco climb. To participate in the stage, you must be over 50 years old and able to cycle between 3 and 5 hours daily at an average speed of 22km/h to 27km/h. The routes vary in length and difficulty. During some rides, we stop for a cup of coffee and cake.
It is compulsory by law in Spain to ride with a helmet. You can bring your own helmet, rent one from the Bike Center or buy a Cannondale QUICK helmet for only €30 .
