🚴🏻‍♀️ Staff feature: Hannah Siler!

🌟 Fun fact: in 2018, Hannah biked to her TCH job interview. Yup! On a bike trip from Vancouver to North Carolina (where she's from), she stopped by Missoula, MT, interviewed with the TCH crew, and has not looked back since. Director of training & development, guide, chef, and an all-around awesome gal.

👨🏻‍🍳 More than just a guide, Hanna is accomplished in her own right. In 2023, she spent two and a half months bike-touring the Republic of Georgia, Armenia & the Balkans. Two weeks ago, Hannah toed the line at her first ever (!) gravel race and rode in the front group, finishing top-5 🔥.

🥳 TCH is all about the community. "People, people, people! Sharing rides and food and conversation with new people every week. My line of work has always been geared towards building community and connection, so being able to have a part in that with a group on a trip is really special. Seeing those connections last after the trip and recur throughout the years with returning guests is just the cherry on top."

☀️ There aren't many trips Hannah has not guided. This year, she's headed to Dolomites for the first time!

🏁 Want to follow Hannah's adventures? Give her a follow . Let's send some virtual high-fives and good vibes her way! 💃🏻👊🏼.h

🍻🚴🏻‍♀️⛰️ Cheers to the dreamiest gravel in Colorado!

Our Steamboat Gravel trip is always a favorite. Days are spent riding champagne gravel, and evenings are spent enjoying great food and epic views at the Steamboat Mountain Resort. It doesn't get better than this! 🍻🚴🏻‍♀️⛰️

We are pretty pumped that we officially kicked off our Montana season last week 😎!

The power of the community table & food 🙌🏼.

At The Cycling House, we travel worldwide, riding bikes and sharing great meals. We belive that food brings people together, and eating good meals together is an integral part of The Cycling House experience 💫.

We love bringing everyone together at the community table, sharing both good food and stories about a memorable day on the bike 🍽️🚵🏻‍♂️.

Cheers to that 🍻!

💫 🚴🏼‍♂️ Magical 🚴🏻‍♀️ Mallorca 🚴🏼💫

Our 2024 Spring camps in Mallorca were incredible - you name it: rides, guests, staff, food, views, memories, Petit Hotel Alaró - this trip is always a favorite.

"Sharing experiences like these is what life is about. We climbed, covered many kilometers, shared incredible meals, and had too many laughs to count." - Brendan Halpin, TCH Director of Trips

Thanks to everyone who made it such a special one. We can't wait to return this Fall + in 2025. Who wants to join us? 🚴🏼‍♂️🏞️🌟

☀️🚴🏼 Summer is coming, and our Montana camps are perfectly timed for the ultimate gravel riding experience. Cruisey double-track roads, single-track amongst the wildflowers, fun mountain descents, and challenging climbs topping out with rewarding views.

🚴🏼‍♂️🌲 Due to popular demand, we have added NEW DATES for our Summer Camp and Luxury Ranch trips. 💬 DM for details and join us!

✨🚐🛠️ It’s new van day at The Cycling House!

Taking suggestions for names for our new fleet 😛. Let us know in the comments below the ultimate van name(s).

We can’t wait to support our guests in our new fleet of vans - starting this week at our All-Women’s + The Dusty Bandita Montana Gravel Camp 🌲🚴🏼‍♀️.

🌟 Guest highlight: Sheri Rosenbaum 🌟

🚵🏻‍♀️ Sheri is a long-time cyclist and advocate for getting more women on bikes!

🚵🏻‍♀️ After several visits to Tucson to ride her bike, Sheri joined TCH for the first time this winter at our all-women's mixed terrain camp. Sheri was nervous but excited to improve her gravel riding skills and she had a bucket-list item to check off: Mt Lemmon!

🚵🏻‍♀️ Not only did Sheri conquer Mt Lemmon with a big ol' smile, but she had a blast at her first-ever TCH camp. "Witnessing a community of resilient women spanning all ages and abilities unite from across the United States to uplift, inspire, and celebrate one another was an extraordinary experience." - Sheri Rosenbaum

🙌🏼 Thanks for your support, Sheri; we hope to share many more two-wheeled adventures!

🌟🕺🏻 Shout-out to TCH staffer Devon Lawler, best known for his award-winning focaccia & guiding skills.

👨🏻‍🍳 Baking skills! "I discovered the Dusty Knuckle bakery during a trip to London in the fall of 2022. It was outstanding. Their simple yet unique focaccia became a quick favorite, and luckily, I snagged their recipe from a cookbook. It's been a staple in my baking repertoire ever since!"

🥳 TCH isn't just a workplace; it's one big happy family! "One of the things I love about working at Cycling House is the quick bond you make with the people you work with. Since I'm pretty new to TCH, most trips I work have at least one person I haven't met, and by the end of the week, it feels like we've known each other for years. That's partly because we depend on each other throughout the week and spend so much time around a table eating together. Those two things create a strong bond that's super real. I think that closeness from the staff then bleeds over to guests and creates a special environment that keeps people coming back."

☀️ Summer adventure awaits! "I am heading to Gustavus, AK, for a friend's wedding in July. Simply getting to Gustavus seems like an adventure in its own right. It's on the coast, and you have to take a small plane over from Juneau. We'll be spending about five days, and I'm looking forward to seeing it all!"

🏁 Go, Devon, go! Let's send some virtual high-fives and good vibes his way! 🕺🏻👊🏼.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for The Cycling House - Montana Gravel 🌈!

"The Cycling House is top-notch. I've taken two trips with them (Mallorca and Montana Gravel) and plan to make a TCH trip an annual retreat. Their staff is fantastic. I'd go on a trip with TCH to hang out with them for a week. Great folks. The routes, food, accommodations, vibe, and attention to detail are what I'd expect at a Five-Star resort. I'd rank my trips with TCH among the best weeks of my life. I'm looking forward to many more." - Andy G., Nashville, TN

🌟 Guest highlight: David Rudis 🌟

🚴🏻‍♂️ The year was 2006, and the location was the original TCH in Tucson. David was on the very first (!) Cycling House camp. TCH had hosted tiny groups before, but this was our first ten-person trip. The group didn't know each other and was from different parts of the country and walks of life. Of those ten people, everyone has returned to The Cycling House several times and often coordinates to be on the same trips.

🚴🏼 Since that first trip in 2006, David has participated in 28 trips with The Cycling House in Tucson, California, Colorado, Montana, Mallorca, Tuscany, and soon-to-be Girona with his son and daughter. He's participated in both road and gravel trips and contributed to our staff's addiction to pickleball. David is a great guy, and we are lucky to have him as a big part of the TCH family.

🙌🏼 Thanks for your support, David; we look forward to many more two-wheeled adventures!

⚡️🚀 Shout-out to TCH staffer, Ellen Campbell! Ellen is racing the SeaOtter Classic this weekend, and we are PUMPED to see her in action! 🚨💥

Perhaps you've seen her smiling face for those who have been to our Tucson camps. Ellen is a weapon on the bike and a fierce competitor.

🚵🏻‍♀️🌮 Born and raised in Durango, Ellen says her favorite thing about working at TCH is spending time with guests exploring on two wheels and eating fantastic food. Ummmm, that's a winning combo! We couldn't agree more.

Speaking of winning, follow Ellen this season at:
- Sea Otter Classic Fuego XL
- Whiskey Off-Road
- The Traka 200k
- Unbound Gravel 200

🏁 Lezzzzzzgoooooooo Ellen! Give her a high-five and some good mojo in the comments below 💃🏻.

🚵🏻‍♀️🌷 Spring be Springin' right now!

🚵🏼‍♂️🌼 TCH California is open for the season and Cali is turning on the charm.

🚵🏻😎 It sure doesn't get much better than this!
