Sardegna = Sardinia = Sardinië & armspieren

[Geo Bhiker]

Deze lente bij de zeer sympathieke, betrouwbare en sportieve gastheren Peter and Anne op bezoek geweest. Peter heeft 1 dagje Sardeense MTB rally achter de rug
http://www.peteranne.it/wp/?s=rally . Volgende editie 6 tot 12 Juni 2010.

Zie de promotie-video op minuut 4:40 waarom het nuttig is als mountainbiker je armspieren te trainen: red je nek.

Nu Ryanair op deze bestemming vliegt, misschien het overwegen waard.

Wist niet eens dat deze bestond, thanks voor de tip.

Waarschijnlijk hebben jullie dit al gesmurft via google, maar dit is website van de Rally di Sardegna:

De paden in Sardinië vond ik heel ruw (grote steenbrokken). De eerste dag 4x platte band. Ik begon zowaar aan mezelf te twijfelen...

Hi I am this guy Peter. The video of the Rally gives you a good idea of what riding is like here, though this is a 6-day enduro event and maybe people prefer to do more "exploring" with more off-road riding and less racing and transfers on asphalted roads. We have asked the Rally's organisers if next year they will have one day of the Race where people not doing the whole 6 days can ride, let's see what they say, so that people can sample this side of MTB racing here. There are also the local races in October and November, these are very friendly and they make people very welcome.

On our website http://www.peteranne.it you can find descriptions of mountain biking here, photos and route information.

Tot ziens Peter

Hey Geo Bhiker, bedankt voor deze tip, een dikke aanrader!
(zal de rest in t engels doen)

we were in Sardinia & had 3 days to spend on the eastcoast, and via this posting we booked
at Peter & Anne's Lemon House, where we had a big spacious room + very nice large breakfast.
but the best part is Peter & Anne have all the info for :
MTB, roadbike, climbing, hiking, seakayak, horse riding, nice beaches, food, ...
they organise whatever you want and are active themselves in especially climbing & biking

Peter has prepared some nice MTB-rides, he joined/guided us on the first day,
he showed us also a very rocky real downhill trail, a bit to heavy for us & the bikes.

the 2nd day he gave us another longer trail via GPS (not to do without guide or GPS!) and because
the regular bus didn't drive, Anne brought us all the way to the start of the trail!

last day we did the rocky hike to the spectacular beach 'Cala Goloritzè' and a splendid seakayak-trip


Lemon House = perfect basecamp for a combined sports holiday!

thnx for a great stay, Peter & Anne! We hope to come back for a longer stay! and the cake was jummy

ik ben met el camino loco mee geweest naar Sardinie dit jaar (5-13 juni)
SCHITTEREND LAND.
Er zijn foto,s te bekijken op de site van el camino loco(forum -> Sardinie)
Inderdaad erg rotsachtig maar nogmaals prachtig om te biken.
mooie,steile klimmen over losse stenen,pittige afdalingen ook over losse stenen , prachtige natuur, zeer vriendelijke locals, een goede keuken, romantische afgelegen stranden .
Alles op en aan om te genieten dus.
Wij zijn een dag de Rally di sardegna gekruist en wat was ik blij dat wij langer daar verbleven zodat we nog een paar extra fietsdagen hadden.
Als ik dan toch mag stoeven dan raad ik aan om met el camino te gaan.
Alles wordt geregeld en je komt op de meest afgelegen plaatsen zodat jezelf alleen aan fietsen hoeft te denken.

and here's a video in Dutch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHnSGO5zUto and a nice account of the ride we did Sunday, with good photos and video(Google does an OK job of translating)

Sorry to write in English
We are writing a mountainbike guide to Sardinia. People coming in the first 6 months of 2010 can test route descriptions and get their photos in the guide. Here I am documenting an easy ride which goes along the beach 1 km from The Lemon House

and this is a great video of an All Mountain ride we did mid-January. Peter
