Overview
Our rides are designed with the perfect combination of riding time and resort relax time!
Cycle Jamaica is an all inclusive cycling vacation which includes 4 nights stay at an all inclusive resort based and 3 organized rides. There is time in the afternoons to meet up with fellow cyclists, spouses and friends to explore the island's many attractions, relax at the spa and to enjoy the facilities of your all inclusive resort.
Non cyclists are welcome and have access to our 24-hour concierge services, hospitality desk, photo shoots, airport transfers, and so much more.
For cyclists we cater to ALL pace levels. If you are an elite cyclist, be prepared to be challenged by the island's top champions and if you are a newbie or intermediate cyclist, know that we make it fun for everyone and there is full service support at all times along the way. This is a concierge service tour with ride leaders as escorts for each group.
NO ONE IS EVER ALONE ON THE ROAD BY THEMSELVES EVER! These are group rides. No rider is allowed in front
of our designated lead rider who maintains the pace level. This is not a race. This is a FUN event. Please don't stress
or get geeky. We are here to have fun!
Our stops are well planned so as to ensure everyone experiences the real Jamaica: we will have a rest stop at a local fruit stall. Enjoy coconut water straight from the nut: the best rehydration ever! The Jamaican people are warm and genuinely friendly. You'll get to meet them up close and in their real world!
We have two ride distances each day. Those in the more moderate paced level will be asked to join the shorter ride distances and allow the faster cyclists to do the longer distances.
WE must choose options that are safe for all riders. This is a GROUP Event. If you would like a specific route, pace etc, we will be happy to create a private ride that will fit your requirements. Our aim is to please!
ANTICIPATED PACE LEVELS:
B 20-24mph LONG This is a medium- fast ride with cycling guides there to help should you not be able to keep the pace. This group does the longer distance. Faster riders can get the opportunity to pull on the front. Just speak to the ride leader for the group.
C 14 - 19mph SHORT This is more of a chillax pace for beginners, intermediates or those who wish just get their morning ride in but want to get back to the hotel for a tour or to be with family or just want a bit more relaxation time.
So come on, let's ride!
Let us show you why Jamaica is truly the "heartbeat" of the Caribbean

DAY 1 - ARRIVAL- Montego Bay airport MBJ
Thursday
We highly recommend to arrive on the earliest flight you can get into MBJ airport so that you have time to relax and enjoy the hotel facilities and get your bike set up. We also highly recommend you book the VIP arrival services/Fast track called Club Mobay for so many reasons: you are met right off the plane and join the fast track through immigration and customs and then have a comfortable place to relax and have a snack and drink before heading off to your hotel as you await everyone to clear through. We group arrivals up to 45 minutes apart and it's 45 minutes to the hotel, so a nice refresh in the lounge is just perfect. Its important to book it early because it often gets sold out early.
