Riccardo Varaldo’s adventure in the Langhe<\/h2>\n\n

A ski instructor<\/strong> in winter and a great bike enthusiast<\/strong> in summer, Riccardo Varaldo<\/strong> – Riky to his friends – never stops! A sportsman with a capital S, he explored the Langhe in the company of Bikeit<\/strong><\/a> and Hey” Sport<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

Here is what Riccardo told us<\/h3>\n\n

Bikeit<\/em><\/strong>: Hi Riky, here we are again after this winter season that we would describe as ‘on fire’. So we’ve known each other for a long time now and we wanted you to explore our Bikeit routes and tell our community about your experience. You left at the beginning of May right?<\/p>\n\n

Riky<\/em><\/strong>: Hi Guys, it’s always good to see you! Yes exactly, I did three days in the Langhe in Alba from 15 to 17 May. Let’s just say that the month of May was not conducive to bike travel with this changeable weather but I still brought home a unique experience.<\/p>\n\n

B<\/em><\/strong>: Tell us more!<\/p>\n\n

R<\/em><\/strong>: I must say that the possibility of booking everything online before departure is really – pass me the term – a cakewalk. It allows you to fully enjoy your bike ride! For example, I booked the bike rental directly with you and the on-site service was super efficient. As I arrived on the first day, I checked in and my bike was already ready at the hotel waiting for me. Super indeed!<\/p>\n\n

B<\/em><\/strong>: We are happy with this feedback! We also believe that being able to organise everything from home before departure takes a lot of the stress out of being on holiday, especially on trips that last maybe only three days. Were you able to take advantage of any of our other services?<\/p>\n\n

R<\/em><\/strong>: Obviously in the Langhe I couldn’t avoid trying a wine tasting! I tasted three really good local wines.<\/p>\n\n

B<\/em><\/strong>: We know that cycling is a sport that can be experienced both in a group and solo, how did you find being alone on the road?<\/p>\n\n

R<\/em><\/strong>: Going it alone is very subjective, some people are more inclined and some are not! I have to say that being one of my first solo trips, I had a good time, then the routes in the Langhe are travelled by many cyclists and enthusiasts. I won’t hide the fact that I had the opportunity to join a group of cyclists doing the same ride as me and it was fun!<\/p>\n\n

B<\/em><\/strong>: It’s really true that behind every journey there is always a discovery… you leave alone and then you meet other people on the road! But speaking of the not-so-great weather (unfortunately), we know that you had some great clothes for the ride.<\/p>\n\n

R<\/em><\/strong>: Yes, and I would say fortunately! I always wore Hey” Sport garments.<\/p>\n\n
