Rimini Riviera is a huge vacation resort, traditionally for tourist who are
not so active regarding sport recreation: When and why did you get idea about
starting cycling tourism? "Rimini Riviera is a popular
holiday resort, known also for its large offer of sport events. Our mission is to enlarge the opening period
of our hotels in the low season
(march-april-may-september-october-november)"
How was idea accepted with normal Rimini hotels and how hard was for
them to turn in to cycling hotels, how high were costs for them? "Most of the hotel owners of RBH are cycling enthusiasts, so it was
natural for them to connect both situations of job and passion. The original
Rimini Hotels are runned by people who love their land, and are the best key to
discover all nature and cultural treasures. We believe that cycling ist a
fantastic way to get this
throught".
How you intend to compete with other touristic destinations, with nearby
Riccione and with Toscana, who are wll known as cxcling resorts? "We are working to give an attractive alternative, do not forget
the roads behind our coast have seen the training sessions of Marco Pantani. We
also intend to improving the MTB and trekking offers, for example promoting
events like Adriatic Coast calender (www.adriaticoast.org) with more than 15
MTB-events for April to October".
