The climbs encountered in each trip will vary on the route. Most of the climbs around Asia are either quite shallow or incredibly steep.
The climbs for most trips will range from 3% to 10% and sometimes over.
Gearing is a personal preference and more gears are usually better than less when climbing. If you are in doubt it’s better to put on a larger rear cassette if available.
On almost all trips an 11-28 cassette will suffice for most recreational riders. Some riders will prefer to run an 11-32 cassette.
In most cases trips are organised with all riders in mind. On the road groups will naturally form and some groups will roll faster than others.
There will be re-group points along the route and we aim to regroup to have lunch together.
On most trips we will have a support vehicle.

Depending on the trip we might have multiple support vehicles.

If you are looking to share a room but aren’t sure who to share with, there is a column on the spreadsheet indicating hotel sharing preferences. Please reach out to those riders directly to arrange.
