The Cycling House: Reviews
Fantastic experience: I just completed my 7th trip with The Cycling House. They are a terrific cycling company which I highly recommend. The food is amazing, healthy & delicious and the crew does an amazing job making sure guests have everything they need. The cycling routes are well planned and the locations are great cycling destinations. Thank you to TCH for another fantastic trip!
Fantastic experience: An unforgettable cycling experience with The Cycling House! Our trip to Tucson with The Cycling House was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, they provided everything I could’ve hoped for: expert ride support, topknots, nutrition and an atmosphere of genuine friendship and fellowship. The Cycling House team went above and beyond to make sure every writer felt welcome and supported. Their guidance on the bike and off the bike was fantastic. The meals were delicious, fueling long rides with healthy thoughtfully, prepared food. But what truly set this trip apart was the kindness of the staff and fellow riders. The camaraderie, encouragement and shared love of cycling created and unforgettable experience. Whether climbing, epic routes or relaxing, after a long ride, every moment felt special. If you’re looking for a cycling adventure that combines challenge, support and an amazing community, The Cycling House is the only way to go! We can’t wait for our next trip with them. Book your next adventure today and tell them Bob and Amanda suggested it!
Fantastic experience: Done my 1st trip (mixed gravel/road) with TCH. Highly professional outfit - great accommodation, guides, food and rides. Excellent bikes in great condition. All rides are fully supported. This company gets it right in all ways! Highly recommended. Can't wait for my next trip with them
Fantastic experience: Just returned from a fantastic week in Mallorca with The Cycling House. Being new to cycling, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was overwhelmingly impressed. The team of guides encouraged me, taught me, and made sure that I was having a good time on each ride (even on big climbs). They were patient and prepared for everything. Every tiny detail is thought out and I didn't have to think about a single logistic the whole week. Just lovely. I ate like a queen, morning, noon and night. The positive attitudes of the staff made the entire experience lovely. Strong recommend!!!
Fantastic experience: I just completed my 8th trip with The Cycling House, a gravel bike trip in Ovando, Montana. The Cycling House is awesome. They are always looking for ways to improve, but I can’t imagine how they could do better. What a great venue at The Cliff Ranch! The food and guides were amazing. No more VBT or Backroads for me.
Fantastic experience: Just had my first Cycling House experience and it was fantastic. Not just a great mix of staff, but the day-to-day details were all accounted for seamlessly from GPS route planning to flexibility on meal timing and schedule adjustments due to weather. Bravo Brendan, Steve, Zeb, Becca, and Sofia! (And Mike & Mike for final day team additions.) I even ran into one of our guides in downtown Missoula afterwards and he recognized me from half a block away and called my name! The experience reflected that genuine connection. Thank you all!
Fantastic experience: Great group of people that treated me like family (in a good way) during their gravel trip in Montana. Fantastic food, excellent support during the rides, and even some unannounced entertainment thrown in for free. They truly care about their clients, from first timers to repeat customers. Never felt unsafe or lost (which is possible in rural Montana) and always had plenty to eat and drink. Would glady sign up for another trip with these folks as compared to other big tour operators.
Fantastic experience: Just finished a week-long road cycling trip in Glacier National Park with Cycling House and...wow! We rode an incredible amount of beautiful terrain and got to take in some of the park's most iconic vistas. Routes and route progression through the week were well-designed and well-supported. The CH team that led the trip was simply amazing - organized, nice, funny/fun, and just great people. The freshly-prepared food was healthy and delicious. Accommodations were excellent, too. This was my second trip with TCH and I can attest that if you book a trip with them you will be in great hands!
Fantastic experience: First trip with the cycling House and it was exceptional!! Amazing guide team, fabulous accommodations and wonderful food. The rides were very challenging, well supported with breathtaking scenery and thrilling descents. Can't wait to take another trip with this outfit!!
Fantastic experience: If you want to experience great riding, awesome guides and fantastic food, book a trip now with TCH! I have been to Montana, Arizona and Mallorca with TCH. They are the best in the business! I cannot wait until my next trip!
Fantastic experience: First time with The Cycling House and will not be my last! Exceptional experience with over the top customer service! See you in Girona in 2025!
Fantastic experience: Beautiful blend of amazing guides, incredible food, stunning adventures, and plenty of achievement. The Cycling House is exceptional
Fantastic experience: Incredibly well run organization. Great people.
Fantastic experience: Amazing experience both years I've attended The Cycling House - Tucson. Super friendly and well-organized staff. Can't beat the fabulous food either!
Fantastic experience: Women’s mixed terrain camp in Tuscon- couldn’t get any better! Amazing support staff, beautiful routes to accomodate a range of riders, awesome chef prepared meals and perfect weather! Only sad that it’s over- see you again soon Cyling House!
Fantastic experience: I can’t imagine a better bike trip than I experienced with the women’s gravel trip in Tucson. Wonderful, fun, organized and processional guides with a comfortable home base and delicious meals. Everything is thought out for you so you just show up and have fun. I highly recommend The Cycling House!!
Fantastic experience: This is my third trip with Cycling House: and I continue to be so impressed with the planning and attention to detail which is exceptional: routes, guides, food and all mechanical details. In Tucson, we had some challenging weather on a few days, and the guides found new routes, changed times, changed tires for the new terrain/weather and made it all work seamlessly. Top notch!
Fantastic experience: Tucson gravel was 5star!!! Patagonia was incredible, meals were so delicious and so well thought out and the support staff where engaged and supportive and the accommodation was awesome! see you in Tuscany!
Fantastic experience: Just back from a week in Tucson, my fifth trip with TCH. What a great week! TCH is tops in customer service and quality, healthy food. While participants are serious about biking, there is room for people with a wide range of abilities and conditioning. The positive culture of TCH and its guides always makes an enjoyable trip. There has never been a jerk on any of my five trips, maybe because of the culture. Keep it up - I will be back!
Fantastic experience: The Cycling House, Inc review November 14-19, 2023. The adventures for me were riding with 16 other high-time bicyclers, riding the topography of the Tucson basin, and that amazing house. After a week as a guest in the house and out on the roads bicycling Tucson, I am happy I spent the week with them. The main reason I signed on was because they assured me that I would be safe because of my celiac disease. This is autoimmune digestion requiring no eating of gluten. Their assurances solidified when I was informed that one of their guides was celiac. Still on faith, I choose to go where strangers prepared all my meals for six days. I can assure you that only a serious chef, with serious meal plans and conscientious teammates could they have yielded such a complete success for me. The Cycling House, Inc., from my long experience, is probably the only celiac safe bicycling resort in the United States. (Europe is more in-tune.)
Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been participating in supported bicycle tours for over 20 years and have done every possible format. Cycling house is great because we got to stay in the same place with most rides directly from the "house". All of the staff were wonderful and we rented their bikes, which were excellent (they put my wife on a Moots!). We did Arizona mixed surface and the routes were superb. We loved the food and the house setup. We will be back for more trips with Cycling House.
Fantastic experience: What an awesome experience. Can't wait for my next trip.
Peter, it was a pleasure hosting you and your friends in Tucson. We had a blast with you all and we’re looking forward to getting out there on the bike with you again soon! Thank you for traveling with us.
Fantastic experience: Just finished my 3rd Cycling House trip with a week in Mallorca. Loved the routes, the guides, the food and accommodations. Best cycling trip I have ever had. Thank you.
Fantastic experience: I've done 7-8 TCH camps since March 2010. 5 domestic between AZ and Whitefish MT; 2 Tuscany and 1 in the Dolomites. It seems like every one I do improves over the previous one...which when you are doing it..seems impossible. The staff, guides, and typically all the guests i guess for obvious reasons usually have a lot in common and just click. The Dolomites was a very large group of 15, I sincerely feel like I had a chance to get to talk/get to know just about every person over the course of the week with dinners, sidebars, riding etc... TCH staff is top notch, both professional AND can do attitude. The slogan could be "lets make that happen"
John! We’ve had some great trips with you over the years! Cheers to 13 years of riding bikes, eating great food, and being with good company! Your friendship means a lot to us. Grazie Mille! We’re already looking forward to the next one with you.
Fantastic experience: I've been on four trips with The Cycling House so far, and on every trip there is inevitably someone who has been on ten or more. There's a reason this company inspires such loyalty; they plan incredible cycling trips staffed by incredibly friendly and capable riders with absurdly good cooks. You can't go wrong taking a trip with them.
Fantastic experience: Every trip with TCH is superb!! The staff, accommodation, food and routes are top notch. Gravel and road - USA and Europe - one stop tour company.
Fantastic experience: Truly the best cycling tour we have taken!!! We took the Tuscany cycling trip three weeks ago. Every detail about the tour was perfect from the Bnb lodging to the cycling routes to the guides to the food!!! We especially appreciated the professionalism and attentiveness of the guides. They were funny, personable, full of local knowledge and focused on the needs of each cyclist. Stops on the routes were well placed for coffee, snacks and breaks. The routes were perfectly challenging. We also loved the 'side activities' to the local winery, the pasta cooking class, Guido's agrotourisma inn, and especially the nightly ping-pong and foosball matches! We loved this experience so much, we immediately signed up for the Tucson tour in the spring. More riding to come with the Cycling House. Many kudos and thanks to you, Owen and team!!! ps: We got married on this trip in a 'surprise/pop-up ceremony'! The CH team pulled it off spectacularly! It was exactly the wedding I dreamed of! Love you guys!
Fantastic experience: I was a long time user of another company but so so glad we found cycling house!!! I am now a stalwart member of the cycling house fan club. In the last 15 months, my friends and I have done Glacier, Arizona, and Tuscany. All were beyond wonderful. We are now working on our next adventure with Cycling House.
Fantastic experience: Love TCH! Just finished my third trip - great guides, routes and food!
Fantastic experience: Quality and perfection. Need I say more? Arizona and Montana this year with The Cycling House. Exceptional guides, food, accommodations , rental bikes, routes , and guests. They take care of every detail to perfection. Genuine , caring, fun people with the highest of standards made for exceptional adventures. They do everything but ride the bike for you and when you think you cannot pedal one more stroke (like the final miles of Mt. Lemmon ) they are there to encourage. So love these people and the experience they provide !!
Fantastic experience: My Cycling House (CH) adventure was truly one of the most amazing experiences of my life!! What an absolute dream of a trip! I don't even know where to start with the accolades, so I am just going to list a few highlights. (Know that the list could go on and on!) - The CH team is incredibly thoughtful, professional, skilled, and an absolute riot to spend time with. Their teamwork is totally inspiring and they make you feel like a true member of the CH family. These folks have life figured out. WOW - what a group! I was floored :) - The accommodations and meals were beyond incredible. In fact this aspect of the trip surpassed all of my expectations. Imagine the most dreamy landscape, a stunning house, and 5 star food shared by new friends on a porch overlooking a field of grazing deer. I'm not joking...that's the vibe...every single night. CRAZY AMAZING! - The riding was beautifully planned and executed. All of the riders had options. The tech support was flawless and the progression of rides and distances over the course of the week were spot on. I am not sure how they pull this off with such grace! We never wanted for a single thing on rides...from snacks, to drinks, to challenges, to laughs, to stories, and of course to encouragement. I mean these folks get an A++ for rider support. EPIC RIDES! (Oh and there's yoga and swimming! :) Thanks CH team! You all are truly wonderful humans and I feel grateful to have gotten the chance to share my week with you!!
Fantastic experience: The Montana Gravel camp was my 3rd Cycling House tour, which in itself is an endorsement. Several other guests were returnees from various TCH trips—once you attend one of their tours, you will be hooked. The accommodations at the Cliff Ranch were beyond my highest expectations, this is a very rare and special place to stay and TCH has secured it for this outstanding gravel adventure. The views were breathtaking and the solitude of the location made for a unique experience, along with the gravel riding routes they have created culminated in a truly amazing trip. The staff at TCH was top notch, as was the food. The food! Healthy gourmet is how I would describe it. The only things you have to concern yourself with are showing up and riding. The ride support van is exactly where you need it, with plenty of water and fuel to keep you going. The rider support is always present, there when you need them to guide or encourage, or to just ride alongside of you. The staff was vibrant, energetic and caring to every guest’s need or want. I highly recommend trying a TCH trip, you will be glad you did.
Fantastic experience: Beautiful scenery, pleasant accomodations, excellent food, wonderful guides. What's not to like?
Fantastic experience: Just wrapped up a trip w TCH in Montana at the Cliff Lodge and wow! What an amazing time. An absolutely beautiful place to stay that very few will ever see w views and privacy hard to match. Add to that the outstanding rides they dialed up and the food throughout the week and it was really just an outstanding experience. This is my 4th trip w TCH and I’ll be joining them again for sure.
Fantastic experience: Run, do not walk, to reserve a trip with The Cycling House if you can. Look no further for the most premium and fun hosted/guided cycling experience you will find. Super fun, super encouraging trip leaders and guides make for a remarkable trip. Oh yeah and the terrain and landscape views don't hurt either. As someone who has planned their own trips like this in the past, the experience of "just show up and everything is taken care of" is an amazing experience...and true. I literally just showed up and rode bikes. Transport, thinking about weather/rides, mechanics, food, lodging...I was able to escape reality for a week and just have an amazing time with my bike and meeting new friends of all walks of life. Note: these pictures from the Montana Gravel trip...which now is an absolute favorite location for riding for me.
Fantastic experience: Very well organized and fun group of people who loving biking and providing a great experience
Fantastic experience: I have just returned from a Tuscany trip. As a non-cyclist, I was apprehensive about going. Between the e-bikes and the outstanding guides, my trip exceeded my expectations. The food was outstanding the entire time. The villa we stayed during the visit is quite comfortable and the family that runs it makes you feel as part of the family. I recommend it even to us non-cyclists!
Fantastic experience: Always great food, great riding, and wonderful staff leadership with The Cycling House! Thank you a thousand times to Cory, James, Guido, and the B&B Palazzo a Merse for the fantastic experience in Tuscany!
Fantastic experience: The Cycling House Tuscany was an awesome experience. Great people, rides, food, and accommodations.
Fantastic experience: Wonderful stay. Wonderful people. Great cycling. Recommend.
Fantastic experience: I am a stronger rider after a week of cycling with The Cycling House. The staff goes out of its way to support every rider in the group. The communication months before the trip up to the day of the trip is phenomenal. Everything is handled so all I had to do was ride and enjoy the trip.
Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a cycling guided trip, The Cycling House will exceed your expectations. The crew are expert riders, masterful chefs, and are uniquely able to meet each person at their cycling level. We had a group of people who were expert riders to new riders and everyone had a wonderful time. They cultivate a feeling of group connection through shared meals, chances to hang out and get to know each other, and bringing in the local customs and history. I cannot say enough about their caring and professional nature, as well as the amazing food! The crew knew the routes and were able to tailor daily options to fit each person’s level. I would highly recommend the Cycling house to anybody who is looking for a deeper connection than just a plain guiding service. You will leave your experience with a new group of friends.
Fantastic experience: The week of biking with the Cycling House in Mallorca is spectacular. What makes it really great are the people that put it on. They go all out to make it an unforgettable experience and will do just about anything to insure you have the time of your life.
Fantastic experience: Fun, well guided rides for a variety of riders and beautiful scenery! Would love to do another ride with Cycling House.
Fantastic experience: Third time touring with The Cycling House, this time in Southern California and again the Guides, lodging (For Friends B&B), food and cycling routes were top shelf. Had a wonderful time as I was joined by 14 other cyclists many were also multiple returning clients. Tells you they must be doing something right. The guides (Cory, Forrest, Jamie and Hannah) worked hard every day to insure we were well supported during the rides and made you feel special. Our meals cooked by Chef Hannah were so delicious and the Happy Hour wine and charcuterie provided by For Friends was very much appreciated after a long hard day of cycling. Don't miss this trip!
Fantastic experience: It's a bit of a given that Tucson has great cycling, but the Cycling House experience takes it to a different level. The staff are superb, whether it's the top notch guiding for all levels, the incredible food or the House itself. Just don't play Owen at ping pong.
Fantastic experience: I’d heard great things about CH trips and discovered they were all true (Arizona Road Feb ‘23). Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: Our Cycling House trip was awesome! The rides were well thought out and worked for a variety of endurance levels, the guides were funny, attentive, and chill - but on top of everything. And the meals, well, just amazingly delicious and healthy. It was a wonderful experience!
Fantastic experience: Just back from a terrific visit to The Cycling House and I can't say enough good things. The cycling trails in Tucson were great. The home-cooked meals by Steven were delicious (and suspiciously healthy). The house itself was beautiful. But most of all, it was The Cycling House crew that made it so much fun. Our guides--Jacob, Steve, Ellen, and Zeb--were friendly and encouraging. They planned a varied series of rides for all abilities. And when the inevitable bumps appeared in the road, they quickly and cheerfully adapted.
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend the Montana Gravel Camp. Everything about it was excellent, especially the friendly and professional staff. The accommodations and chef-prepared food were simply outstanding and the routes we rode were just gorgeous. If you like to ride gravel roads with a fair amount of climbing, this tour is for you. Updated September, 2022... Having ridden with The Cycling House in 2021, my wife and I decided to do so again in 2022, this time in Tuscany. We certainly were not disappointed. Like the Montana Gravel Camp, everything about the Tuscany Cycling Vacation was outstanding: terrific accommodations, unbelievably delicious food, great daily routes, scenic vistas, and of course the staff. I cannot adequately convey how friendly, enthusiastic, informative, and helpful they all were. Other companies offer cycling tours of Tuscany, but I cannot imagine one doing a better job than The Cycling House and recommend it without reservation.
Fantastic experience: The Cycling House trip to Tuscany was a bucket-list level trip. Everything- from the rental bike quality to the food and wine and views to the genuine warmth of the Italian family and cycling guides hosting the entire crew- was TOP level. I can’t imagine a better trip for biking in Italy than this one.
Fantastic experience: Can't say enough wonderful things about The Cycling House. Our trip from Yellowstone to Glacier was amazing. The guides, Brendan, Elsa, Jacob, and Landon took great care of us, from pacing us up the road, to making sure we have the fuel we needed. Liz and Pat, TCH chefs for the week, kept our bellies full of delicious food, and ours hearts filled with laughter. Can't wait to be back for another trip!
Fantastic experience: I recently participated in the “Yellowstone to Glacier” trip put on by The Cycling House, and it was outstanding! I was extremely impressed with all facets of their support. Their guides were super attentive and able to make our entire group of 10 (ranging from beginner to advanced) feel both comfortable and challenged. Simply put, they know the things that matter in creating a good cycling vacation experience and are excellent at all of them. From mechanical support to amazing scenery to informative pre-ride meetings to delicious food to timely coffee, they got you covered and will ensure treasured experiences and special memories are created. If you’re looking for a biking tour in one of the locations they serve, I would highly recommend going with The Cycling House.
Fantastic experience: My wife and I just did the Glacier ride with the Cycling House. This was my 3rd trip with them and the 1st for my wife. We did the ride on our Tandem and it was a great experience. The staff were exceptional, the accommodations and food were also exceptional. We're already talking about booking our next trip with them. A first class operation and team!
Fantastic experience: I had an absolutely fantastic time at the Tucson Gravel Camp in February! This was my first time attending a cycling camp, and I couldn’t have been more impressed. Owen, Chloe, James and Corey were so welcoming and they were clearly focused on creating a wonderful experience for all of us. There were challenging rides in beautiful locations everyday, followed by happy hour treats and time to relax around the pool or in the spa in the afternoon. All the meals were awesome, too - so delicious, and healthy with lots of ethnic variety everyday. The home is absolutely beautiful as well as architecturally interesting, and my bedroom was very cozy and well-stocked with lots of special touches. I loved every minute of my time with Cycling House and look forward to attending one of Montana Camps next year.
Fantastic experience: Loved everything about this trip. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly and fast! Would highly recommend to anybody who likes bikes, sunshine and fun!
Fantastic experience: The Cycling House is the G.O.A.T.: Greatest of All Trips. The staff are incredible and make the entire experience stress-free and so much fun, the food is the best I've ever had, and the cycling routes are bucket list-worthy. A highly recommended experience and I can't wait to take my next trip!
Fantastic experience: The Cycling House is top notch guiding, support, food, service, and the best people and accommodations. I've done 2 Tucson trips and can't recommend them highly enough. I'm having withdrawals from Camp week!
Fantastic experience: The Cycling House is the perfect biking experience in Arizona. The digs are top notch and perfectly set up for a group of cyclists -- pool, hot tub, outdoor and indoor dining, even an area for stretching and foam rolling. The food is designed for people that want really good healthy food that is really well thought-out, prepared and presented. Most importantly, the CycleHouse team is great at what they do -- great hosts, great bike guides and just super friendly, nice and cool. Many thanks for a perfect visit!
Fantastic experience: The Cycling House team in Tucson was fantastic. Owen, Corey, James, and Chloe made everyone feel at home in 'The House'. The accommodations, the setting, the food, are all over the top. The riding was perfect. A great combination of very challenging, long rides, and the appropriate recovery day in between all with perfect on-course support. I'll be back and I'm bringing more friends.
Fantastic experience: I've done three trips with the Cycling House team now and each one has been challenging and well organized. The crew there are great professionals and see to all the details. The result is an excellent and exhausting week of cycling where I get to be the worst cyclist in the group and get much better as a result. Update for 2022: I've since done two more cycling house trips during the pandemic. Both of them have been terrific. Last week I went to the actual cycling house in Tucson for the first time, and it was a wonderful week of cycling with amazing food as well. There are more luxurious providers, but if you goal is a good week of cycling, TCH is very hard to beat. I'll be back for more in the future.
Hi Paul, we appreciate the review here and you're on a heck of an awesome streak with us at 3 trips! Thank you for the support and choosing to travel with us. Have a great summer.
Fantastic experience: The Cycling House is incredible at what they do — incredible staff, gorgeous trip locations and perfectly planned and executed logistics. They go above and beyond to ensure guests have to focus only on the cycling, and they anticipate and fulfill every other need imaginable. Could not recommend them more enthusiastically!
Fantastic experience: An overall outstanding experience. First off Owen and Sam are phenomenal biking guides as well as providing support on the SAG wagon during our triathlon camp. Stevens cooking ability is outstanding and is like having a personal chef with Michelen food value and we're coming at whatever dietary restrictions or needs you need. They were flexible, knowledgeable, professional, and always prioritizing our needs and enjoyment over anything else. You want more fantastic experience check this company out. PING PONG REMATCH OWEN!!! Update 1/2022 Still as awesome as ever. Even though I gave her a hard time, Ellen you were great along with Esteban and Brendan. Everyone is helpful, chill, and easy to to talk to. Nice ping pong match Owen...Challenge again 2023? :P
Phil, thank you for the kind words. See you in 2022!
Fantastic experience: Had a fantastic week with The Cycling House in Tuscon! The guides were all very friendly and really focused on us having a great experience. The facilities were great, and the food was fantastic! It was all around a great experience, and I will definitely be going on additional trips with The Cycling House in the future!
Fantastic experience: The Cycling House is top notch. Owen, Brendan, and the rest of the crew are all incredible - impressive athletes, phenomenal hosts, and 100% focused on ensuring every single guests has a wonderful experience. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend a trip with these guys for any level of cyclist - they were all so welcoming and willing to bend over backwards to make sure everyone had fun and felt included.
Fantastic experience: Owen, Elisabeth, James, and Zeb hosted our group of 10 NICA coaches and a couple non-riding spouses in Tucson. Owen tailored the rides to suit our various skills and styles, and the crew shepherded us through a good cross-section of the trails that Tucson has to offer. The house is very conducive to pre and post-ride activities and camaraderie. The food was a highlight: fantastic, fresh, and nutritious. For a group like our, this was a perfect venue.
Fantastic experience: My second trip with Cycling House and both trips were fantastic. The crew takes care of every detail and they and make it enjoyable for any skill level. Great accommodations and food and always very scenic rides. Thank you Brendan, Kipp, Jim, Drew and Ian!!
Fantastic experience: We did a private trip in Solvang, CA. Brendon, Drew, Emily (Kipp), and Jim hosted us on a great trip riding in the local mountains. They paid attention to every detail giving each of us a very personalized experience.
Fantastic experience: Owen, James, Liz & Zeb did a fantastic job hosting, guiding, and feeding us at the Cycling House in Tucson. Our group had a mix of riding interests and skills, and they provided great riding for all over a mix of singletrack, gravel and road. The food was superb, and the house, pool, and spa provided a great atmosphere for gathering and relaxing. Thanks to the Cycling House crew!
Fantastic experience: I had a great experience on my first trip with TCH at Montana Gravel Camp. The best gravel roads I have ever ridden - a seemingly endless supply. Climbing was challenging, but the reward was super fun, long downhills. The accommodations at Cliff Ranch, the food and staff were great - making for a great experience. Looking forward to another trip with TCH.
Fantastic experience: The Glacier to Yellowstone (camping) trip was wonderful. I enjoyed the breathtaking views and experiences throughout the trip. The hospitality of the staff trumped the views and experiences. What a great team of people; they really made the trip. I could not have asked for a better vacation.
Fantastic experience: Brendan Halpin with James, Ruby, Landon and Chloe did an outstanding job of making our trip from Yellowstone to Glacier the best it could be. With 16 riders of different abilities, they were masterful in giving each rider the support they needed while keeping the group happy. From outstanding meals by Chloe, to early coffee and perfectly placed rest stops, I highly recommend The Cycling House.
Fantastic experience: Had a fabulous trip with TCH, experiencing epic Montana and Wyoming/Yellowstone! Everything was great, so supportive and helpful managing our private trip & big bunch, delicious meals, AMAZING routes, scenery, and wildlife, too! Will definitely plan on another trip! Thanks again for a trip to remember & cherish!
Fantastic experience: After a week of riding and being taken care of by this fabulous crew you will truly feel like family. It was hard for me to plunk down the money for their Glacier National Park Cycling Tour, but I am so glad that I did and look forward to doing it many more times in the future for their other trips. The food was fantastic, the people were wonderful, and the riding was incredible!
Fantastic experience: Owen recently went above and beyond when I was looking to rent a gravel bike while at the E Bar L Ranch in Greenough, MT. He initially was all out of bikes because he had a tour going on, but I explained that I was training for my first Ironman triathlon, and he dug around and was eventually able to find one (I think it was his wife's ?!?!). He dropped it off at the ranch, with a pump, all the necessary tools and a spare tube. And then picked it up at the end of the week. During the week he checked in a couple of times to make sure things were going well. The bike (a Cervelo) rode great and was in great shape. Had an awesome week ripping around the gravel roads around the ranch. Owen and the Cycle House definitely set a really high bar for a great product and great customer service. 100% would use them again.
Fantastic experience: This was truly an incredible and amazing experience. The staff, food, gravel routes and service was outstanding!!! I honestly do not have the words to express how AWESOME this entire trip (Montana Gravel June 2021) If you get a chance book it immediately---I would put 6 stars if I could.
Fantastic experience: I recommend Cycling House very, very highly. The staff are incredibly nice people to spend a week with. The food is fantastic. Accommodations are always comfortable and relaxing. The rides allow you to take it as easy or push as hard as you want. I have ridden with them in Glacier, Tucson, and Solvang, and loved all three experiences.
Thanks for joining us again, David. It's always a pleasure to have you along for the ride!
Fantastic experience: The absolute best. Great value for the level of professionalism. They do everything for you, you just have to pedal your bike.
Fantastic experience: Very professional and well run. Great food from Chef Stephen. Can't wait to do another trip next year!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic trip to Tucson, AZ! Owen Gue and his team are wonderful hosts and professional trip leaders. Food, accommodations, safety and organization were top notch. Challenging rides were made achievable by their planning and encouragement. Already planning another trip with The Cycling House for next year! Thanks team for a great experience!
Fantastic experience: Look no further, book your next trip with The Cycling House, you won't regret it. This company is leaps and bounds above any company out there. From the time we got off the plane at Tucson, AZ. till we got back on, TCH has taken care of Everything! What separate them from the competition is the attention to details and efforts from everyone in providing you with the best Cycling vacation. Me and the rest of the group have really enjoyed it and are coming back next year for more.
Thank you for joining us Yaniv! We'd love to have team Florida back at the house in the future! We appreciate you choosing to travel with us.
Fantastic experience: Did gravel camp in Tucson in Feb 2021. The guides were exceptional and the riding itinerary was superb - challenging, scenic, and a fun mix of road, gravel and terrain. Because of COVID, we stayed at the Tanque Verde Ranch rather than the Cycling House. The accommodations were fine and about half of the food was from The ranch (it was ok) and half cooked/arranged by The Cycling House (excellent). This is a great camp for a rider of all skills with good fitness. I felt it was a positive environment where you could ride as hard or relaxed as you feel while fully supported by the fantastic guides. Definitely plan to be back
Fantastic experience: I just spent an amazing week at the cycling house. What an amazing group of people! Our club had a range of athletes with different levels of speed and endurance. Everyone was able to push their limits but stay in their zones. The riding was awesome and beautiful - and the support/sag was over the top. The Cycling House itself was luxurious and the food was beyond fabulous! Already making plans to go back - SOON!!!
Elysia, nice work at camp. We can't wait to host you again!
Fantastic experience: Awesome experience with the whole TCH crew. Owen, Sam, Steven, and Chloe were beyond wonderful and accommodating on every front. They made you feel like part of the family and that you had known them for years. Will be back to Tucson and hopefully their other adventure trips in the future.
Thank you for the kind words, Katie. It was good spending time with you on the bike, and at the cafe :)
We look forward to seeing you again.
Fantastic experience: The crew at The Cycling House is beyond amazing. They allowed us to host a group of amazing athletes and really focus on providing them with an incredibly special experience! We already can’t wait until next time!
We'll see you in 2022! Thanks again for a wonderful week and we completely loved hosting you and your group.
Fantastic experience: I had a WONDERFUL experience with TCH in Tucson in early November. Owen and the team put together some great rides on road, gravel and single track so it was a different cycling experience every day. We were the first trip to Tucson in COVID times and the team did an amazing job using the Tanque Verde Ranch as our accommodations. Safety was the team’s priority off the bikes as well as riding. Nice rooms and really great food provided by the ranch and Steven from TCH. Rental bikes were great and Dan did a wonderful job of getting them ready each day. I would definitely recommend TCH!!!! I plan on choosing them again for my next trip.
Fantastic experience: What an AMAZING experience! I rented a bike to ride Going to the Sun Road at Glacier National Park — which I've ridden on my old bikes for 10 years. It's a 17 mile climb and then a fast descent. The uphill didn't even feel like an uphill. It was like riding on silk. The whole experience of renting the bike -- which had a titanium frame and weighed only 17 lbs -- was super easy and smooth. The Cycling House folks were super nice and great communicators and the price was very reasonable -- a great deal for the quality of the bike. I've been telling my friends to try this -- because I never had so much fun (and less slog) riding Going to the Sun!
Fantastic experience: I just finished the first ever gravel camp at the Cycling House. It was one of the best weeks of my life. The rides were challenging, and absolutely beautiful. The guides were incredibly helpful, encouraging, upbeat, and friendly. The food was top notch at all meals, and the meal times with fellow guests was great fun. I highly recommend the Cycling House to anyone thinking about going. You'll have the time of your life!
Fantastic experience: Just returned home from my sixth trip with TCH and am already registered to go on another trip with them later this year. They're the best in the business of cycling vacations. The routes, meals, accommodations, and especially the staff are terrific. Highly recommend.
Fantastic experience: I just got back from an amazing trip in Italy with the Cycling House. Owen, Brendan and the crew have spent an enormous amount of time and energy planning so each day is as outstanding as the next. From finding the most scenic rides, organizing the most amazing places to stop for coffee, gelato, wine tasting, and top shelf lunches, to developing long standing relationships with the local bike shops and restaurant owners, so you feel like they are there just for you, the experience is unbeatable. The historic bed and breakfast is quite a treat to stay in, along with the homemade authentic Italian food, ready as soon as your done riding. I can't recommend a trip with The Cycling House enough.
Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough about the staff, food, lodging and of course the gravel bike riding in Seeley Lake. The staff was always helpful and I never felt I was bothering them with any questions that I may have had. Staff is friendly, treated me like family, and always had smiles on their faces. The food, OMG! I think I gained 5 lbs cuz it was all so good. Kudos to Steven. The riding was phenomenal! I will be back but to do a different ride through them! Oh and I even got to meet Owen. Also Jessy’s desserts, I couldn’t say no to any of them! Thank you all for making my vacation a memorable one.
Fantastic experience: This company has it all- an amazing support crew, upscale housing, fresh healthy food and a positive vibe. Most importantly, the riding is fabulous. Every day offers great climbs, outstanding scenery, and wonderful back roads with very little traffic.
Negative experience: Were not open at the hours listed
Hi Keith, I’m sorry we missed you at our Missoula office. Due to this incredible Montana weather we’ve been having, I think our staff bike ride went a little longer than expected. That’s completely on us and I apologize we weren’t open when you showed up.
Though google lists us as a full-on bike shop, predominantly what we do is organize and run cycling trips and vacations in Italy, Spain and the US. We have elements of a bike shop but I feel you’d be better served by one of Missoula’s awesome brick-and-mortar bike shops. I’d love to suggest a couple of my favorite local shops here in town that can help you out. Feel free to email me at [email protected] and I’ll point you in the right direction. Thanks for the feedback and happy riding this summer. - Owen Gue, President
Fantastic experience: My wife and I took part in The Cycling House Glacier National Park and White Fish Montana week in June 2019. We could not be happier with the experience. Their team is absolutely fantastic on multiple fronts. The team leader, the guides and the cook were extremely thoughtful and uber-prepared for each of our rides, accommodating a wide range of strengths and capabilities on the bike. The guide were fun to hang with in the back o the pack but also fun to spar with and capable of dragging us in slipstream on long rides. The cook was amazing in his creativity in accommodating nuanced dietary restrictions and spent time educating us nightly, with regard to the food's preparation, it's origin etc. Was an awesome experience all around. Thank you.
Keith, we appreciate the kind words here! Thank you for making it up to Montana with us. Have a great summer.
Fantastic experience: Awesome trip to Solvang; highly recommend these guys
Hi George, thanks for the review. It was wonderful having you in Solvang with us. We hope to ride with you again in 2020. Have a good summer with lots of riding :)
Fantastic experience: Review of my week at Cycling House – September 2018 From pick-up to drop-off, the week at Cycling House in Tuscany could not have gone better. We were fortunate to have great weather – possibly the only thing it seems Cycling House cannot arrange! Let me start with the cycling, as most cycling trips keep the focus right where it belongs. The routes were well planned and well laid out. Cycling House had provided both RideWithGPS and Strava links that could help you navigate. Those links came in handy a couple times. Almost always, if there was a turn coming up, either you knew about it or a Cycling House guide was there to direct you. Each day was different and, except for the first day warm-up ride, there was a good deal of climbing on these rides. The rides were not overly long, though they could be as taxing as you would want to make them by joining the “espresso” group who tended to launch pretty quickly and kept up a high tempo most rides. There were often short and longer versions of rides. Except for the first day, the rides ranged from 32-50 miles with no less than 2,500 feet of climbing. The scenery from the bike is stunning, with a lot of broad vistas, cycling through vineyards and through olive groves. It was common to hear the following: “really, we are cycling in Tuscany, how wonderful!!!” A few riders brought their bikes and as they were to go on to other adventures in Europe, they shipped them home. You can rent a bike from the area (these are provided by a shop in Siena). The bikes are carbon-fiber Focus with Shimano Ultegra (mechanical). They performed well and, while they may not be as light or fast as, say, a Specialized S-Works Tarmac or a Pinarello Dogma, they are quite reasonable for a rental and Cycling House does a very good job of set-up and care during the week. We were fortunate to have four guides and I cannot speak more highly of them. Jim led us, and he is outstanding both on and off the bike. James and Marshall were terrific, and we had a terrific young 17-year-old local racer, Guido, who is not only an outstanding rider but a quite mature young man. Watching him motor pace up hills behind the van was impressive! What made this trip extraordinary was the off-the-bike activity. Almost every day, we had opportunities to enjoy Tuscany’s bounty and graciousness. One day we had a wine tasting hosted by Barbara who was generous with her time, her knowledge of the grapes and the wine-making process, and poured lovely wines. We spent time in Montalcino (home of Brunello di Montalcino), San Gimignano (home to award winning gelato – which we were able to sample frequently throughout the trip), and Siena, where we had a private tour by Eleanor followed by dinner in town at an outstanding Osteria. Chef Nicola came to the B&B and held a 2-1/2-hour cooking class, where we learned a few excellent tricks! There was plenty of food as needed and though this may be heresy to even ask, is it possible to have too many carbs and too much pasta in one week? While riding hard, no, it is not possible Finally, I want to give a special compliment to the host family of the B&B, Andreas, Federicka, and family at Palazzo Merse. They welcomed us as if we were family. They helped with everything, excellent and plentiful food, brewed decaf coffee (which is not common in Italy), laundry service every day (allowing you to bring two kits for the week if you didn’t want to pack more), and a pool to sit around and have a beer after a good day of riding in a warm climate. They were wonderful. In fact, my guess is that one could easily book a room to stay there, bring a bike or rent one, and do a week of riding from the Palazzo by oneself with little support needed. In summary, I cannot recommend the Cycling House trip more highly.
Larry, thank you so much for the feedback and review of your trip to Tuscany! We appreciate it and thanks for joining us in Italy! We agree, it's an amazing place to ride a bike!
Fantastic experience: Amazingly attentive, client-first staff whom go the extra mile! They take extra care to provide a bespoke experience for all attendees. I've traveled the globe over the past decade in support of Customer Service initiatives for several Fortune 500s and can confidently say The Cycling House is truly exceptional. The riding, lodging, food, and staff are all outstanding! KUDOS
Hey Vinny, thanks for the kind words and thank you for traveling with us! Looking forward to the next trip with you.
Fantastic experience: My wife and I just finished the Glacier to Yellowstone trip with TCH. This was our second trip with them after Tuscany in 9/16. The pace of life that fall got in the way of a stellar review for that trip which I never made time to write. This trip was spot on as well in all respects. The route selection, the staff, the food, the camping facilities all made for an amazing week of riding and a very relaxing vacation when not on the bike. This trip in particular highlighted Montana's great roads with two bucket list rides in Glacier and the Beartooth Highway. The food was delicious and well prepared catering to all potential special needs of the gluten free, Vegan, vegetarian, etc. crowd. The TCH team was agile in adjusting the options for the day based on the needs of the various clients at the start of each day as well as throughout the day, both on and off the bike. Having finished the trip, it's hard to fathom how they pull it off for such a reasonable price. For us, the high light of the trip was the people, both clients and staff. The Cycling House breeds a bond like family among staff and clients. From the top to the bottom, Trip Director to luggage support, the team exudes pride and perfection in the unique product they provide. Checking dates now to book next year with TCH.
Karl, it was a pleasure having you and your wife on this adventure with us! Thanks for the feedback.
Fantastic experience: I participated in the 2018 Cycling House Moots Ride Camp. Every aspect of this trip exceeded my expectations. The planning for the trip was done with precision and thoughtfulness. The guides were professional, knowledgeable, and exceedingly friendly. The bikes -- both the Moots and the BH Cycling House stock -- were first rate and in excellent adjustment. The accommodations and meals were wonderful. Best of all, the guides remained flexible and open to last minute desires, options, or changes. It seemed "no" was not in their vocabulary. I've done a LOT of cycling trips with a number of different companies. I would rate Cycling House as among the best. I will happily ride with them again. Oh....and the winter riding in Tucson is simply fab.
Evan, thanks for the feedback and the very nice words! We're grateful to have had you along for this trip in Tucson. Hope to see you in 2019!
Fantastic experience: Last month my husband and I as well as 8 of our friends spent a week in Tuscany with the Cycling House. We cannot say enough about the amazing experience we had and what a stellar job the Cycling House crew does to allow each one of their guests a truly memorable trip. Owen , Anya, Andrea, Andy and Guido along with Andrea's exceptionally lovely family definitely think of EVERYTHING to insure everyone is having a safe, fun, unbelievably wonderful time. Not only is the cycling breathtakingly beautiful but they go the extra mile to treat their guests to the phenomenal culture of this picturesque region and the gracious people who live there. The accommodations were clean, comfortable and lovely. The food was incredibly delicious, abundant and unique and Oh the Wine! Thanks to all for a trip of a lifetime!! Jack and Kathy Reid
