- Daily briefings, coaching discussions, and shared insight

Tailored escapes.
Private trips. Personal rhythm.
Not every cyclist wants to chase elevation. Some want to soak in silence, explore gravel paths, climb mountain passes, or simply reconnect with a riding companion.
We design bespoke Pyrenean cycling escapes for solo riders, couples, or families.
- Basecamp format or point-to-point
- Road, off-road, or mixed terrain
- If desired, guide available via trusted partner
You tell us who you are. We build the experience around your needs, not the other way around.
La Isolé, the royal ride.
Two days. Three valleys. One philosophy.
Royal Asport is proud to sponsor the jerseys of La Isolé, the annual cyclosportive held in Borau, Aragón - just over the mountain from our workshop.
This isn’t just another gran fondo.
La Isolé is raw, high, and human - a celebration of solitude and solidarity in the Pyrenees.
- Four challenging courses
- Royal Asport “Meet-the-Makers” at the start village
- Local gastronomy & post-ride beer bar

From vision to route, escapes built around you.
How we work.
Pyrenean Escapes designs experiences, not travel packages. We focus on routes, terrain reading, and on-the-ground expertise, while participants remain free to choose and book their own accommodation, transport, and services. This approach preserves flexibility, independence, and a direct relationship with local providers - exactly the way we believe mountain experiences should be lived.
Tailored escapes.
Every rider has different ambitions. With Royal Asport Cycleworks, your escape is designed around them. We listen, we plan, we deliver - quietly unique rides that feel like they were always meant for you. We design the experience around you, from vehicle-agnostic route concepts to time, terrain, and pace that match your goals. You remain in charge of reservations and on-the-ground execution.
Here are some examples.
Juniors Bikepacking Camp
For a regional committee of the French Cycling Federation, we created a three-day camp tailored to Junior riders. Objectives: fun, safe discovery, and team spirit. We designed:
• 3 days of bikepacking in the Basque Country
• Quiet routes and trails with no high mountains
• Progressive mileage to match junior capacity
• An atmosphere focused on exploration, confidence, and enjoyment
A relaxed, formative event where young riders can enjoy the essentials of bikepacking while sharing the experience with teammates.
Beach-to-Beach Gravel
Three French cyclists wanted to cross the Pyrenees east to west, from Perpignan to Hendaye, entirely on gravel. We mapped and delivered:
• 8 riding days from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic
• Daily luggage transfers to keep the riders light
• Selected accommodations each night, balancing comfort and local character
• Stage-by-stage GPX files with precise routing across passes and hidden tracks
The result: a complete blueprint for one of the most ambitious gravel adventures in Europe - a seamless trans-Pyrenean ride, from beach to beach.
Basque Country Training Camp
A Dutch rider asked for a one-week camp focused on quiet roads, daily consistency, and progressive challenge. We designed:
• 6 days on the bike across the Basque Country
• Custom mileage each day, adapted to training objectives
• Average elevation per stage balanced to build endurance without overload
• Routes hand-picked for minimal traffic, authentic scenery, and variety
From first pedal stroke to last evening dinner, the week unfolded exactly to the rider’s brief: demanding, restorative, and uniquely his.
In cycling race, every escape begins with a conversation. Tell us what inspires you, and we’ll craft the rest.

Celebrating Cycling in the Western Pyrenees.
La Isolé, the authentic Pyrenean cyclosportive.
Born in Borau - the village of José María Javierre, the very first Spaniard to enter the Tour de France “en isolé” (as an independent rider) in 1909 and 1910 - La Isolé has become a landmark event that blends intensity, history, and local spirit in the Pyrenees.
The festival offers four formats to test every rider’s limits across wild and demanding terrain:
• Mediofondo: 60 km > +1,600 m
• Granfondo: 140 km > +3,000 m
• Ultrafondo “Tres Reinos”: 170 km > +4,000 m - the toughest option, built for groups and adventurous souls
• Cronoescalada “Tourmalet 1910”: a 19 km uphill gravel time trial, a tribute to the first-ever Tourmalet ascent
Beyond the sporting challenge, La Isolé is defined by its spirit: an immersion in Pyrenean cycling culture, complete with exhibitions of vintage and historic bicycles, period equipment, and an atmosphere that transforms Borau into a true epicenter of cycling adventure.
Immerse yourself into La Isolé spirit with those two videos made by @sebeteam in 2023. Enjoy the ride!
