Hi All,
Looking at going over to see the 2019 Spring Classics and currently looking at a few tour companies but having trouble deciding which one to go with and finding reviews on them.
Looking at:
- Bike Style Tours https://www.bikestyletours.com/spring-c ... 1-day-trip
- Mummu https://www.mummucycling.com/tours/2019 ... rt-ogrady/
- Sierra Sports http://sierrasportsandtours.com.au/tour ... -classics/
Anyone traveled with them in the past, went on this years Spring Classic Tours with them?
Cheers

I’ve done a Mummu tour and it was very good. They are very tight with Mitchelton-Scott.
Value is subjective.

My thoughts exactly cyclotaur when it comes to value, what does the extra ~$2k actually get you?cyclotaur wrote:I’ve done a Mummu tour and it was very good. They are very tight with Mitchelton-Scott.

It gets you Stuart O'Grady (Roubaix winner) and attentive support, excellent accommodation etc, but it is a premium offering. You won't lack for anything. As I said, the value is subjective, and very dependent on your budget.
If you want all the bells and whistles and can afford it, you won't be disappointed.

That mummu deal this year looks like the duck's nuts. I have never done one of these cycle tours, but have more than a few remote fishing tours done and the costs look reasonable tbh. Premium package for the enthusiast that another enthusiast would be jealous of. Like I am, right now

I did a TDF tour with Bikestyle with Eric as the lead and had a great time. If you was going to do another tour it would be the Spring Classics one you posted. The Mummu one looks pretty great too. Whichever you do you won't regret it.
