Organiser's Description
This 8 day, 400k cycling challenge will give you a real feel for Cuba, as you travel on what was once the main Havana to Santiago road. This single lane is now used only for local traffic, so expect to share the tarmac with ancient Soviet-era tractors, old American cars, horses and carts. The route travels through what was prime sugar cane land, citrus groves and the majestic Escambray Mountains before arriving in Trinidad. You will end your tour at the Che Guevara Mausoleum in Santa Clara, and enjoy a Cuba Libre, before the drive to Havana for a celebratory dinner.
