Why should you need an instructor?

Choosing a guided tour allows you to discover the practice in the best conditions, in complete safety and also to improve quickly. It is to ensure that you ride on a trail, adapted to your level and in a friendly atmosphere.

Maintenance

Our bikes are checked, maintained and adjusted to your weight for maximum quality and safety.

Security

Safety requires the right equipment. Our Supervised Escapes include the rental of a complete set of protective gear (helmet, gloves, elbow pads and knee pads).

Warranty

Your instructor will explain everything you need to know to handle your bike properly, but breakage can happen. We recommend taking the Marmotte Futée damage insurance for 3€.

Are you a big group?

We organize your group escapes according to the desired theme. Sporting, gourmet or cultural, for a half-day, a day or a weekend, we will be able to answer your request. For groups of 6 or more, please visit our special Group Events page.

The minimum number of participants is set at 3 or 4 depending on the type of course. An accompanied outing cannot take place if the minimum number of people is not reached. You will then be offered to postpone the tour, to modify it or to be refunded.

For the comfort of all, we limit our groups to 6, 8 or 10 depending on the type of outing.

During a group outing, everyone has more fun when the level is the same. We accept kids from age 8 / height 1m35 and as soon as they are autonomous and know how to ride a bike (use the brakes, pedal, turn, stand up on the bike).

Our groups are composed by level so that everyone has a good time. Don’t hesitate to call us to discuss your level or to consult our level guide so that we can choose the best level together. If the level of the group is too different, we will suggest you to change the group or the schedule in order to ensure the safety and the satisfaction of all.

As a rule, the starting point is at our office in Chinaillon.
