We often hear from people doubting their physical abilities. The following is worth remembering:

 

A few weeks of cycle touring not only allows you to discover your physical potential, but also to implement and develop physical condition. It considerably strengthens self confidence, lays the foundation for further and permanent sports activity, and lets not forget; cycling combined with appropriate nutrition contributes to increased muscle mass whilst losing weight.

 

It can also be observed that people on a tour,  far from the distraction of their usual environment, become a lot more motivated. They take pleasure in riding, heading for new adventures, sights to see, things to discover or just trying to beat their kilometer record of the previous day.

 

SWISS TOURER offers you the opportunity to be independant of others and therefore to ride at your own pace. A training pace that allows you to gently build up your fitness, neither feeling overwhelmed by the physical demands of intense cycling or bored by others.

By participating in one of our courses we can show you how to train effectively and cycle to an achievable itinerary appropriate to your fitness level.

Furthermore, a long term bike trip (several months) will inevitably produce remarkable athletes.
