It will be a while before it gets here, but it is important to get some mileage in. The Alps are different from the hills in southern Limburg. Want to start training your climbing and descending skills? Then join a clinic.

You can prepare optimally with Fondo's training schedules. You can receive a code for this!

Per category this is approximately what you may think of. Always negotiable with us are alternatives or adapted routes which also influence the heaviness.
