The thrill of the white roads (strade bianche) of the Val d’Orcia, the timeless charm of historic cycling, and the challenge of the world’s most famous cycling event: L’Eroica Montalcino is an unmissable appointment for every road cycling and cycling history enthusiast. Pedaling through the vineyards of Brunello, on routes that have shaped the history of this sport, is a unique experience that combines exertion, breathtaking landscapes, and pure passion.
However, participating in L’Eroica Montalcino with a vintage bicycle requires meticulous preparation and flawless logistics. Transporting a vintage bike from home can be risky—the fear of damage during travel is constant—and decidedly inconvenient. Furthermore, not everyone owns a historic vehicle ready to tackle the demanding Tuscan slopes.
TuscanyBiking offers the ultimate solution to these problems: vintage bike rental in Montalcino. Our “all-inclusive” service is specifically designed to let you arrive in Tuscany and focus solely on enjoying the ride, handling delivery, collection, and specialized mechanical assistance directly on-site.
