Review of Bike Florence&Tuscany

I did not do a tour, but rather rented a road bike from them to keep up my cycling habit while abroad. Besides being very friendly hosts, the owners are avid cyclists and it shows in their selection of high quality road bikes (Colnagos, Treks, Bianchis) for daily rental. Brought my pedals and shoes and was on a bike in no time, with a couple of sensible tips for nearby routes. The price is commensurate with the quality: renting a full carbon race bike can never be exactly cheap, but its not budget-busting either and it s a rare opportunity to explore the countryside while keeping up the pace.
The great thing about Tuscany Cycle is the variety, from dream-fulfilling Vespa tours, to city bike tours around town, to the more niche market of road rides, they are accommodating, knowledgeable, and fun.
