Dylan Reynolds

Dylan Reynolds

As a child in Zambia, Dylan rode on the crossbar of his father’s bicycle. At 14, he and his mom, dad and two younger sisters cycled the length and breadth of Great Britain (Lands End to John O'Groats). At university, Dylan studied history, international relations and languages (three, to be precise) while cycling and playing squash. Dylan arrived in Milan, Italy intending to play squash professionally. Instead, he found himself guiding for Ciclismo Classico and he has been at it ever since! He has lived for a few years in both the Italian Dolomites and in the mountains near the town of Albertville in France. A traveler to the core, after completing post-graduate study, found his way to Sydney, Australia, where he currently lives with his wife.

Gelato of choice: tiramisu

“Dylan was awesome – he made the trip. I would go with him again in a heartbeat.” – Robert of Medina, WA
"Dylan took care of our every need or desire. The trip in every way was wonderful and Dylan made it that way. He supplied everything including an abundance of laughter. What a gentleman…” - Ingrid of Boulder, CO

All Levels

You’re potentially interested in any level of trip and don't want your site experience tailored to any specific level.

Easy

You’re new to biking, or you just want to take it easy with lots of stops to take pictures and explore and no one hurrying you along. Expect a leisurely pace over generally flat terrain.

Average distance per day: 18-35 miles.

Make This Your Default Level

Athletic Beginner

You’re not a fanatical rider, but you exercise regularly and enjoy a leisurely day’s spin on your bike. You might want to graduate to “intermediate” one day, or not. The pace is relaxed but the terrain gently rolling, more ups and downs, more vistas and valleys than Easy tours.

Average distance per day: 35-45 miles.

Make This Your Default Level

Intermediate

You’re active on your days off, and recreational biking is most likely your weekend sport of choice. You love to ride and it shows in your endurance and strength. A steady but active pace, with opportunities to push yourself and some challenging climbs, with great descents over rolling terrain. (These folks ARE cyclists, they are usually pretty serious cyclists but do not train at the expert level.)

Average distance per day: 40-50 miles.

Make This Your Default Level

Expert

You crave vigorous pacing, challenging climbs and thrilling descents. You crave longer mileage with lots of hills and descents, varying terrain, and a mountain pass or two only makes it better.

Average distance per day: 45+ miles.

Make This Your Default Level
