“Cesare was very responsive, helpful, and nice. I was looking for rent a gravel bike to tour the whole island. He was the ONLY one who was willing/able to rent me a gravel bike, despite many other bike rental companies listing gravel bikes on their websites! Everyone else tried to push me to use a hybrid or said unavailable, despite me knowing I wanted a gravel bike with drop bars. Cesare was responsive over text on Whatsapp, and had my bike ready at his shop. It was a great experience working with him.”

The route was away from the tourist side of Mount Etna and we went through a variety of landscapes up to 2,000m. Even though it was hot in the valley you definitely need a wind jacket at the top. We loved the adventure and the half way point where we met a local Etna expert. Great trip!”
