Scott D Posted December 16, 2006 Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 Open for online bookings. The site also gives lots of help to find accomodation. http://www.granfondocampagnolo.it/ Ryanair apparently fly from Liverpool or Stansted to Treviso which is about 55k from Feltre (although there is nothing on the Ryanair site about Treviso). Easyjet fly from Bristol, E Midlands and Gatwick to Venice Marco Polo (which apparently is not as convenient). They've only got a limited amount of space for bikes on the flights so advance booking flight (and bike) is best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mossy Posted December 17, 2006 Report Share Posted December 17, 2006 I have flown Liverpool- Trevisio. You have to choose your day for a midday flight out unless you don't mind fly6ing at 6 am. ( the times alternatye on different days.) If you can live without sleep, or work night shift, the early flights have the advantage of giving you a full day in italy when you arrive. trevisio is a very small airport, easy to get out of and back to. When you walk out the door you are on an ordinary looking suberban street, not some frighting dual carriageway or acres of car park/ industrial sites. The train station is probably an easy bike ride away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott D Posted January 18, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2007 Train times. Here is the Italian train booking website in English. http://www.trenitalia.it/en/index.html Interestingly you can buy a ticket for you bike on the trains for 3.50euros, that allows you to take it on any number of trains within 24hours. Alternatively, if you have a soft bag and partially dismantle the bike you can get it on for free. For the technical minded there is also a wap facility that gives you access to the timetable on the move from your mobile phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2023 Subscriptions duncan thomson Posted January 25, 2007 2023 Subscriptions Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 has anyone done the campagnolo before, looking for advice regarding travel and accommodation.

Scott D Posted January 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Hi Duncan As per pm. Apparently on the day you can decide what route to do (most people do the middle route when they realise how hot it is), which usually splits at a point on the course. I plan to arrive 2 days before, get acclimatised, and head off the day after. Let me know what your plans are and I'm happy for us to make a group booking for accomodation. How many people do you think would be interested? One point is that with the very late snow across Europe this year there are fears that this will be the warmest summer in over 10 years.
