Tucson has been a staple winter time training destination for years and has become one of the top training location for cyclists all over the world. Riders enjoy Tucson as a winter training location because of it's reliable sunny weather, endless miles of lightly traveled roads, cycling friendly population and wide variety of terrain that can hardly be matched anywhere else in North America.

The Cycling House, located in Tucson, has offered an escape from the cold Canadian winters for years and gives cyclists an environment that enables athletes to reach their full training potential and enjoy every minute of it. Canadians have come to The Cycling House to be part of a stress-free training environment. The House is unique because it provides riders with an all-inclusive service: The pro training camp for riders of all abilities and ages.

The House is staffed with professional mountain biking brothers Sam and Andy Schultz, pro triathletes Jen Luebke and Brendan Halpin, and ex-elite road racer Owen Gue. This stellar staff prepares amazing, healthy and tasty meals, takes cyclists on fully guided and supported training rides, provides airport shuttles, trail runs, lap swim, core workout sessions, mechanical support, coaching, and the list goes on and on. The Cycling House runs cycling and triathlon camps throughout the winter, starting in January and going through April. Check out their website for available dates, nightly rates, and more information on the services offered.

Canadians have been heading South to The Cycling House since it opened. Tess of Vancouver, BC says, "I did a week-long camp in Tucson and staying at The Cycling House was Awesome!  We had very comfortable rooms for hanging out after a long day on the bike.  AND the meals....oh  my!  The staff, being amazing athletes themselves, really understood what we needed to give us lots of energy... hearty breakfast and lunch and dinners that were a delicious feast every night! Tucson and The Cycling House = Perfect warm weather training in the winter!"

Russell Cree said, "The Cycling House camps are a BLAST and amongst the most fun experiences I have had in the sport.  It was great to get away from the cold for a bit and get some sunshine. Can't wait for next years camp and making this an annual tradition."
