Experiences.
— OUR APPROACH
The Pyrenees,
like no others.
Training camps, tailored escapes, and editorial reconnaissances designed for cyclists, media, and brands who want to enjoy the mountains like no others - just for them.
—
ONE HOUSE. MANY WAYS INTO THE PYRENEES.
We do more than build bicycles in the Western Pyrenees. We create ways to experience them.
A journey designed around you. A reconnaissance built for a story. A week shared between roads and high trails. A tested gravel route to follow independently.
Or an event that brings riders together.
Different formats. Different levels of commitment. One territory we ride, know, and call home.
— THREE WAYS TO RIDE HERE
You tell us who you are.
We build the format around it.
Each one answers a want: a personal ride, a professional shooting session, or a shared sporting weekend.
Tailored escapes
Basecamp, point-to-point, or training camp - custom Pyrenean escapes built around solo riders, couples, and friends. Two days or two weeks not from a catalogue: a journey always designed around you.
Editorial recon
Field reconnaissance across the Western Pyrenees for shoots, launches, and stories that need real terrain, not stock footage. Routes, logistics, and access - scouted by the house that rides here daily.
Pyrenees Hike & Bike
Royal Asport Cycleworks is a proud sponsor of La Isolé, Borau's raw, high, human cyclosportive. We built the “Pyrenees Hike & Bike” around it, just over the mountain from our own workshop.
ADOPTAGRAVEL.COM
A living collection of tested gravel routes around Oloron and across the Western Pyrenees. From short rides to bikepacking traces, choose a route and ride it your way.
SELECTED EVENTS
Some rides are meant to be shared. Discover the events we support, create, or help bring to life across the Western Pyrenees, from a human-scale sportive to an ultra climbing challenge and a multi-day team raid.

— EDITORIAL RECON
More than a location.
Editorial Recon is built for cycling media, photographers, brands and creative teams looking for more than a location.
Our role with Editorial Recon is to help creative teams understand a territory before they tell its story.
We work on the ground, across the Western Pyrenees, to identify routes, landscapes and riding conditions that can become the foundation of a strong editorial story.
Rather than conventional press trips, Editorial Recon focuses on route selection, terrain reading, visual coherence and field reconnaissance.
From the map to the field
A route can look perfect on a screen and tell a completely different story on the road.
When we ride those routes, we observe. We check surfaces, gradients, traffic, access, viewpoints, transitions and the landscape. We look at how a route works as a cycling experience, and how it can work visually and editorially. This field knowledge allows us to build routes around the needs of a specific project rather than simply provide existing gpx files.
What we provide.
01 —
Route planning
Road, gravel and mixed-terrain routes designed around the editorial objectives of the project.
02 —
Location scouting
Identification of landscapes, roads, villages, viewpoints and environments relevant to photography, film or editorial production.
03 —
Timing & light
Understanding when locations work best according to orientation, season, weather and available light.
04 —
Local production support
Practical knowledge of the territory to help a visiting team operate efficiently in the field and better connect with the people.
— THIS IS OUR TERRAIN
The Western Pyrenees.
Navarra, Aragon, Béarn. This is our terrain. We live and ride here.
Editorial Recon gives visiting teams access to roads, landscapes and atmospheres that are difficult to understand remotely - including places that would rarely appear in a conventional cycling itinerary. We deliberately keep some locations private.
The objective is not to create another catalogue of cycling destinations. It is to find the right terrain for each story.
— CREATIVE INDEPENDENCE
Independent by design.
The project starts with the story you want to tell.
We then look for the terrain that can tell it.
Independently of any public body or local institution.
Editorial Recon is not a press trip.
There is no predefined itinerary built around tourism promotion, no obligation to feature specific destinations and no imposed editorial narrative.
Royal Asport Cycleworks provides field reconnaissance, route planning and local production support.
We are not a travel agency or a tourism office. We do not handle accommodation bookings, transport reservations or third-party payments.
This separation keeps our role simple and our editorial approach independent.
FEATURED PROJECT
Pyrénées–Aragon: Sur les traces de La Isolé
Le Cycle N°594, August 2026 (the post-Tour de France issue).
Local knowledge, route selection and field support for a six-page cycling destination feature.
For its August 2026 issue, Le Cycle explored the northern Aragonese Pyrenees - a territory of quiet roads, preserved landscapes and demanding yet accessible terrain.
Royal Asport Cycleworks contributed local knowledge, route selection and field support to the project.
The routes were designed specifically for this editorial, based on our own field experience and knowledge of the territory.
Rather than starting with a catalogue of established cycling destinations, we started from the ground: riding, observing and understanding the territory, then identifying the roads, landscapes and atmospheres that could support the journalist's own story.
The resulting seven-page feature was published in the August 2026 issue of Le Cycle.
WORLD PREMIERE
La Verna: A bicycle inside the world’s largest visitable cave
Sainte-Engrâce, Basque Country, December 2025. We held a photo session for our Collarada allroad bike beneath the La Pierre Saint-Martin pass, more than 700 meters below the surface. To our knowledge, this marked the first time a bicycle manufacturer entered a cave to photograph its production.
