From the rendezvous point at Malaga airport this 7 night riding centre will offer some winter riding in 10-20° temperatures while people at home are freezing. We have two guides every day, one to show the route and the other offering one-on-one advice and guidance to let you improve your roadcraft ad riding.
This being a centre based trip, you will be escorted to the hotel on the arrival day and we will ride from there each day on circular routes. There will be some route repetition to allow you to work on lines, road positioning etc.
This trip has no motorway riding but concentrates on good country roads. We expect a probable maximum of 1400-1750km (c.1200 miles) with an average of 300km to 350km per day. Riding on our "Experience" trips is more hard-core with many "go-for-it" sections.
Any day may be used as a rest day! It is down to personal choice whether you ride or not!
Please remember you must have signed the waiver form, faxed it to us and you must bring the original with you before we can allocate a motorcycle. Click here to download a copy (pdf file)

This 7 night riding centre itinerary below and offer the following possibilities
We base the week from our selected hotel in the historic town of Ronda, located about 45 minutes drive from the airport of Malaga which forms our meeting point for the trip. The meeting time is 12.30 on the start date of your trip. From the airport we bring you to the hotel base where we will complete paperwork and allocate the bikes for the initial rides. For the centre based trip we will be swapping bikes on a daily basis in order to give you the chance of riding different models and to demonstrate how each model's differences, such as suspension, braking systems and general chassis geometry change the behaviour of the bikes.
The first afternoon includes a 2-3 hour ride in order to give everyone chance to familiarise themselves with the bikes and general conditions and to allow our guides to see what your riding level is.
We will be eating as group in Ronda each evening.
The next four days will follow a similar format. One of the two Ducatitours's riders will lead the group on a circular ride of around 250km with the second Ducatitour's rider concentrating on one rider per session (with sessions of approx. 2 hours). The sessions will be examining the following areas:
