What an amazing tour! You were all tremendous hosts and every detail was looked after. A trip of a lifetime and memories that I will take with me forever!

I just wanted to thank you again for an absolutely amazing tour! Together with the rest of the team at Bikecat, you have truly created a once in lifetime experience. As the tour unfolded before us each day, every aspect and detail was perfection. From when we first met you at the airport and received our guidebooks for the week, I was truly impressed. The hotels, the food, the rides – there is nothing that I would do differently. Most importantly, the hospitality of you and your team was top notch. You are a great bunch of guys and together provided that special ingredient that made the trip so unique and special. My only wish is that we could ride together more often! We will most certainly be back again – hopefully sometime soon!

Stefan Baerg – Mariposa Cycling Tour: Pyrenees to Girona Tour with Michael Barry, September 2016

It was an outstanding week and I am still replaying those great rides in my head. We thank you all for giving us such a great experience. I am sure I will be back to Girona soon.

Having Michael Barry riding with us just made it all so perfect with his many years of riding it the region and his stories of life as a pro cyclist. To ride the roads, he trained on for many years was a wonderful experience and I am ready to do it all again. I have been telling anybody who will listen how wonderful Catalonia is, the people, the country side, the food the Bikecats.
Thank you again for making this a great experience for us.

David Harper – La Ruta Mar I Muntanya with Michael Barry – September 2016

Thanks so much for the great pictures. The week was one of the best in my life. I really appreciate everything you did and all the on the road support you gave me. Below is a review you are welcome to publish if you so wish.

I just finished a 7 day bike trip with BikeCat. This trip was truly outstanding. As a staff member for a cycling touring company, I am well aware of what it takes to run a successful bike tour: planning, attention to detail before and during the ride, pre-trip communication with riders, support on the road, providing quality hotel accommodations, establishing routes, high-quality meals, and support staff who understand the individual needs of the riders. BikeCat exceeded my expectation in all these areas. They provided me with a high-quality bike rental which alleviated the need to drag my bike through the airports. I was amazed at how they provided routes and support for our group which included riders of very different ability levels. We all felt supported and comfortable with the distances and difficulty of the rides. The staff was extremely supportive of my lack of e parties in both climbing and descending. They made me feel comfortable and provided some individual technique coaching. To top off the experience Hotel Historic was a great place to stay and we were introduced to a real variety of Spanish cuisine.

The Pyrenean Eight – Pyrenees to Girona with Michael Barry – September 2016

We did a custom tour for five riders with a range of abilities and interests. We were greeted with a hard-backed book detailing in pictures and words our proposed ride plans for the week.

Bikecat provided incredible support, planning routes that matched the riders and somehow magically had us meet at the same time at a designated lunch spot. We almost always had a support van nearby and two guides riding with us who encouraged us, gave cycling hints and explained local landmarks or customs. The food was superb albeit more than I should have consumed. The Hotel Historic was a gem, a restored building dating back to Roman times. As we turned a corner in the stone walled lobby I felt it equally likely I would see a bicyclist or a Roman centurion. Bikecat asked for detailed measurements in advance so that the rental bikes matched our left at home gems. The bike fit was spot on. I was in awe that the bike was a Team Garmin bike formerly ridden by Tour de France cyclist Tim Duggan–very very sweet bike but its rider for the week needs lots of work.

Marlene – Girona Cycling Tour – October 2015

As promised, I’ve written a piece relating to Bikecat and our time we spent with you. Hopefully it expresses what a wonderful holiday Duncan and I enjoyed. It’s just been published by Headset Press: Headsetpress
