Matt S - Italy

My experience with the Leod group was truly fantastic. From the perspective of the youngest guy on the trip (32 years old) and traveling with my 60 year old uncle, i was under the impression that this would be a laid back, backroads tour of a beautiful country... i was half right. Italy is breath taking and around every bend the view was more stunning then the last. the part i was wrong about was the easy type of riding- "more gas" as the Italians would say! be prepared to have you senses over run by thousands of curves, insane elevation changes, and traffic weaving that we know not in the USA! The wildest part about all that is I'm not describing Mugello race track! Those were just the streets! the race track itself was a combination of heaven on earth, a rock concert, and a NASA launch site!   i loved it! if you appreciate well put together and delicious meals then Italy in general is a safe bet, add in the menu Leod chooses and you win, big. Cat, our guide, is an incomparable stud. The man Rides, eats, and speaks like a champion. Keeps positive at all times and in general is cool to spend time around. The only one trumping him is Nancy- a red headed- Aria wearing- Xena warrior princess of the road! they make a great team and made my trip so memorable that I'm going with them to Australia at the end of 2016. My time with Leod made me a better person and i would highly recommend giving them a look to take you to places you will NOT go without them. - Matt S
