For the 2012 Spring Classics we’ve decided to offer up something a little different. We’ve stripped down our “all in package” from our previous years’ tours to allow you the guests to pick and choose what suits you best – what does this all mean? It means that you can opt out of activities which don’t appeal to you in order to get extra of something else. For example you can choose one of the longer ride options one day in lieu of a city trip excursion.
This is definitely the most affordable way of experiencing the spring classics. We’ve found that all of our past guests really enjoy the casual and un-choreographed feel of our tours, so why not let YOU be the judge!
So for 11 days between March 29th – April 9th 2012 The ChainStay will open it’s doors to you awesome cycling enthusiasts as a B&B&B (Bed and Breakfast and Bike); a fully supported cycling guesthouse serving up breakfast every morning.

Not included are group dinners (except those included in the Race Day Viewing Trips) this gives you the option to choose from numerous dining options. In the past most guests often choose to dine together even when given a “free choice” evening, so chances are you’ll never dine alone. Plus who says you have to eat local cuisine every night in Belgium? If Chinees take out makes you happy then have that!
We are more than happy to make dining suggestions and reservations for you during your stay, plus an evening shuttle to and from the town center means you can have an extra drink… or two. Cheers!

*** Please note we have made some of the add ons available to non ChainStay B&B&B guests. This means that if you aren’t lucky enough to snag one of our rooms, but would like to join us for one of our supported rides or our race day viewing of GP Scheldeprijs you may just be in luck! Just contact us to express your interest and inquire on our availability.
