Last year a group of PFW riders went to the Dory during Giro week and had a fantastic time. It was so much fun that we’re planning on doing it again and wanted to know if you’re interested. It’s very economical and the hotel is wonderful. For this trip everyone is on their own for their own arrangements. I’ll likely visit another city (not yet determined) before the Dory, which provides an opportunity for acclimation to the time zone. I’m forwarding an email from the Dory’s US Ambassador who took great care of us. I strongly suggest that you follow Joanna’s recommendations if you’re interested in going and absolutely use her booking code. https://bit.ly/joanna-bob-ambassador

Last year a group of PFW riders went to the Dory during Giro week and had a fantastic time. It was so much fun that we’re planning on doing it again and wanted to know if you’re interested. It’s very economical and the hotel is wonderful. For this trip everyone is on their own for their own arrangements. I’ll likely visit another city (not yet determined) before the Dory, which provides an opportunity for acclimation to the time zone. I’m forwarding an email from the Dory’s US Ambassador who took great care of us. I strongly suggest that you follow Joanna’s recommendations if you’re interested in going and absolutely use her booking code. https://bit.ly/joanna-bob-ambassador
