Very nice experience! Tomas is a really nice guy and one hell of a cyclist! He arranged a single day ride for me and my three Dutch friends with a coffee stop. Really nice route, with nice roads and even 2 extra guides to accompany us. Especially during the climbs when we split up due to some fitness difference this was very nice. The route went through beautiful green hills and some challenging climbs. Exactly what you would wish for when you are looking for a ride in Colombia. We saw a lot of other cyclists and this is also a well known area for professional cyclists to train at high altitude. The coffee stop was very nice aswell and on top of the first big climb, so really well timed. This was also a place where pro cyclists often come by. We get to make a picture with local Ineos hero Daniel Felipe Martinez who was also training on the same roads as we were and was very kind to stop for a photo! Bikes were in very good condition. Only, maybe one thing to improve are the bikes for longer guys like me (1.90m+). Bikes were still visibly in good condition and well maintained. However, my bike was not as high end as the others and I had to climb with less of a mountain gear. Understandbly, because there is probably no need to make much bikes for people as long as us Dutch guys in Colombia ;).
Overall, it was a great experience! Would highly recommend booking any cycling trip with Tomas!
