Private cycling in southern Portugal
Private Algarve Cycling Holidays, Built Around You
Private guided Algarve cycling holidays designed entirely around you and your group.
Completely private, completely personal
Private Cycling, Planned Around You
RideWithPete provides completely private Algarve cycling holidays for solo riders, couples, families and groups of friends. You choose when to visit, arrange your own accommodation between Portimão and Alvor, and Pete builds the private guided cycling around you.
There are no mixed groups, fixed itineraries, fixed routes or required number of riding days. Your programme is shaped around your dates, ability, fitness, preferred distances, climbing preference and the kind of riding you enjoy.
Everything is tailored to create the right private cycling holiday in Portugal for you.
Built around the way you ride
Every Holiday Is Different
Algarve road cycling holidays can focus on challenging mountain rides, flatter café rides, coastal scenery, quiet inland roads, endurance days or easier recovery rides. Routes are selected for your ability, fitness, preferred distance, climbing preference and group goals, then adapted to the weather and how the group feels.
Every holiday is built around the customer. No two riding programmes are identical.
The ideal base for your rides
Where To Stay
Customers arrange and pay for their own accommodation. For a RideWithPete Algarve cycling holiday, your accommodation must be located between Portimão and Alvor.
This area is an excellent base for cycling in Portimão and cycling in Alvor, with the coast, varied inland roads and rewarding climbs within easy reach. Staying here also allows Pete to plan each day efficiently. If asked, Pete can suggest the general area or suitable locations, but accommodation is booked and paid for directly by the customer.
- Convenient access to varied routes
- Coast and inland roads within easy reach
- An efficient base for each guided ride
Local roads, personally guided
