Adventure Out Cycling Trip to Riccone, Italy

This was a trip in place of the usual Mallorca training camp, which in the past has been a combined GOC/CycleOut trip.  The base for our cycling was an excellent hotel in Riccione, about 10Kms south of Rimini on the Adriatic coast.  It was still most definitely 'off season' so the resort was pleasantly quite, but the sea felt more like the North Sea than something connected to the Med.

These are pictures from the 'medium' cycling group.  There was a group of walkers and an easier paced cycling group. All the thanks must go to Peter for his impeccable organisation.
