Cycle Jamaica is an all inclusive cycling  vacation  which  includes 4 nights stay at an all inclusive resort based in  Runaway Bay, and 3 organized rides. There is time in the afternoons to meet up with fellow cyclists, spouses and friends to explore the island's many  attractions, relax at the spa and to enjoy the facilities  of  your all inclusive resort.

Non cyclists are welcome and have access to the private welcome and farewell events, our 24-hour concierge services, hospitality room, photo shoots, airport transferss, free covid antigen test for the return and so much more.

For cyclists we cater to ALL pace levels. If you are an elite cyclist, be prepared to be challenged by the island's top champions and if you are a newbie or intermediate cyclist, know that we make it fun for everyone and there is full service support at all times along the way. This is a concierge service tour  with ride leaders as escorts for each group.

NO ONE IS EVER ALONE ON THE ROAD BY THEMSELVES EVER!

These are group rides. No rider is allowed in front of our designated lead rider who maintains the pace level. This is not a race. This is a FUN event. Please don't  stress or get geeky. We are here to have fun!

Our stops are well planned so as to ensure everyone experiences the real Jamaica: we will have a rest stop at a local fruit stall. Enjoy coconut water straight from the  nut: the best rehydration ever!  Enjoy local roasted yams - as we pedal through "Usain country"! The Jamaican people are warm and genuinely friendly.  You'll get to meet them up close and in their real world!

We have three ride distances each  day.  Long route, Short route and then the option to do the One way Short route.

Why not go longer? Several reasons.  This  is an early or  late season event and its a vacation. So you dont  want to be so exhausted that you cannot enjoy the resort after the ride. In  addition, Jamaica is hot and humid. We want to return to the resort before the 11am  sun and most importantly be able to go at a comfortable pace and distance so you enjoy yourself 

ANTICIPATED PACE LEVELS (this is not avg speed but the pace that we move at when on the flats. We always regroup on climbs)

We adjust  the number of groups depending on participant registrations.  We could have  anywhere from 2-4 groups. This is a not

a competitive event by any stretch of the imagination.  It is  a RECREATIONAL EVENT. Please dont take the speeds  and challenges too seriously. WE have a chill and relaxed vibe.  Our  rides are meant as season openers or closers. Chill  - its  a vacation!

#1     20-24 mph   LONG  This is for faster cyclists. There are no cycling  guides to push in A group.

If you want a fast ride but may need assistance, please join group B.  

#2   17 - 20mph  LONG  This is a medium- fast ride with cycling  guides there to help should you not be able to keep the pace. This group does the longer distance.  Faster riders can get the opportunity to pull on the front. Just speak to the ride leader for the group.

#3   14 - 18mph   SHORT This is more of a chillax pace for beginners,  intermediates or those who wish just get their morning ride in but want to get back  to  the hotel for  a tour or to be with family or just want a bit more relaxation time.

#4   10-  15mph (NEW!)  Short   This is for newbies, beginners and those who would like to learn more at an easy chill pace, from our expert coaches and skilled cycling guides. Happy to share our knowledge. We take joy in your improvement!

So come on, let's ride!

Let us show you why Jamaica is truly the "heartbeat" of the Caribbean
