Austria · 5 days
The week starts on Wednesday 29 July with individual arrival at Hotel Alte Post until 11:00. A social ride runs from 11:30 to 17:00, then dinner at 18:30 and a briefing at 20:00 where the two performance groups are sorted out.
Thursday and Friday follow the same shape. Breakfast from 07:00 (07:30 on Friday), group rides from 08:00 or 08:30 in two performance levels, and free time from around 15:30. Thursday evening brings Elena Roch's talk, "Ultra – when the mind keeps going", at 17:30, followed by dinner. On Friday there is an optional trip to watch the Night Sprint round of 16 from 20:30.
Saturday is the lighter day: breakfast from 08:00, Pilates with Julia Blum at 10:00 at the Alrflow, then optional visits to the Arlberg Giro Expo Area for the pasta party and race number pick-up at 11:00, or a 2–3 hour ride with Elena Roch from 12:00 meeting at the Expo Area, with cake afterwards. Dinner is at 18:30.
Sunday 2 August is race day. Breakfast from 06:00, a walk of about 100 metres to the start area at 06:45, and the official Arlberg Giro start from 07:00. Your starting place is guaranteed as part of the package.
What separates this from a generic cycling holiday is the coaching pair. Elena Roch won Race Across Austria 2024, is world champion in the 24-hour individual time trial and 2025 European champion in ultracycling, and is a certified mental coach. Julia Blum is a certified Pilates trainer and road cyclist who handles stability and mobility work alongside the riding. The camp is explicitly not at race pace — the stated aim is a motivating, supportive group where nobody gets left behind.
