Whether you're going for personal bests or a leisure pedal, sightseeing or daily massage, you'll end the day around the table telling stories and making friends.

Wonderful ride with Emily. Lots of wonderful conversation and helpful hints for a semi-beginning rider that was with us. Thank you!

The Patagonia, AZ gravel trip was an exceptional adventure. The spirit of the place, the natural beauty of the Sonoita Valley, and the challenge of the daily gravel routes left me feeling nourished, body and soul. Heidi was in regular communication leading up to the trip. I felt prepared for the adventure ahead. Zander's meals were off-the-charts good -- I appreciated the local ingredients and healthy preparations. And the daily routes were just right for me -- I felt pushed and exceeded my own expectations for what I could handle -- and I appreciated there were opportunities to push myself even harder (or to take it easier) each day. Most of all, the easy camaraderie among the other participants was delightful. I can't wait to visit Patagonia again or try Cyclist Menu's trip in another location. Thank you!

The riding and routes are spectacular -- challenging but fun. The wide open vistas, endless sky, solid climbs, ripping descents, and dearth of cars make for epic gravel riding. The whole experience is well-organized with top notch food, guides, mechanics, re-supply, and great photos. There is real effort and care taken to ensure everyone is getting what they want out of the riding and routes, which I really appreciated. Very welcoming and friendly crew. Highly recommend.

What an amazing experience--better than I could have imagined. Heidi and Zander were thoughtful, gracious, friendly, fun hosts. The rides were a blast! I really appreciated the well-planned and organized support. I learned so much, riding with the super knowledgeable, friendly, expert guides: a special shout-out to Emily and Heidi, who coached me on gravel riding skills, and Noe, whose brain I picked on the next changes to make with my bike (and in what order to try them). It was fantastic not to be left to ride on my own, as I've become accustomed to doing with other tours. Heidi managed to give all of us the challenge and fun we were looking for, regardless of our skill levels. The ride snacks and meals were top-notch! Shannon and Zander were right there, on the spot, with what we needed. I felt like a pro rider, with the bike wash and lube service each day. I enjoyed getting to know the other riders, on the bikes and off. Our group as a whole felt very congenial and welcoming. Our room at the Stage Stop Inn was comfortable, clean, quaint, quiet, and convenient, a perfect place to wind down each night and prepare for the next day's adventure. I already want to come back for another gravel camp with Heidi and Zander and their crew!
