Hello.
I've been trying to decide where to hold my next training camp - from 1. feb - 28.march.
My first thought was Lucca in Italy, due to all the great climbing possibilties - and I've heard the roads are quiet and friendly motorists... But now I'm a little bit worried that I wont be able to ride in the mountains because of icy roads or snow. - Any of you have experience riding in this area at this time of year?
My second choice was Alicante/Benidorm in Spain, but after a quick look on google earth, it doesn't look like there's as many climbing possibilities as in Lucca - one advantage is that it is probably signifcantly warmer (18 degrees celcius)
Even though Alicante is warmer, my first choice is still Lucca, UNLESS the weather makes climbing impossible.
I hope some of you can help.
Suggestions for other locations are welcome of course
Thank you!
