mollet cycliste tour de croatie

Named by Condé Nast Traveller magazine (that bible of lust-worthy holidays) as one of the 10 most beautiful islands in the world, Hvar is a two-hour flight and two-hour ferry ride from the UK and on the same latitude as Marseille, although the weather is more dependable than that on the French Riviera.

It’s the last week of September and the good old British weather has been nose-diving towards autumn. The road swings right around a hairpin and the corner breaks our rhythm. De retour sur le vélo, Janez Brajkovic a connu ses heures de gloire chez Discovery Channel, Radio Shack, Astana et Bahrain-Merida.

As we settle into a rhythm silence sets in and it’s a chance to appreciate the views. As we freewheel fast downhill I can’t help but let out a whoop – this is unbridled, effortless fun.

Our next stop is Vrboska, the smallest town on the island, which boasts a series of picturesque bridges that criss-cross the harbour, and a nudist beach popular with Germans. Ivo is a six-foot-tall Croatian triathlete who escaped a job with a large tobacco company in America to return to the island where he was born. Back home, darkening days and endless drizzle are starting to make riding a bit of a chore, yet here I am in a summer jersey and shorts about to set out on my bike.

The fish wriggles and flaps. But as Ivo recounts with disdain the tale of a bunch of drunken Australians who climbed the town’s 17th century bell tower and rung the bells at 3am, I slink back into my chair and order a cola instead.The island of Hvar is a beautiful place to ride and confirms why I prefer sunshine and fast riding to the long, slow punishments and murk of Europe’s big mountain ranges. The sea is so close that one false move and I’ll be swimming rather than riding, which given that the temperature is now hovering in the upper twenties wouldn’t be such a bad thing.

‘There must be a funeral,’ says Jelena. Thanks also to Ivan Zovko of Adriactive for all his assistance in arranging the trip.

But during Croatia’s War of Independence (1991-1995) the National Guard moved in and then, like many of the country’s former luxury hotels, it was used to house Bosnian refugees. From Split, Hvar is a two-hour ferry ride, which costs around £30 return.

To the west are the Dalmatian islands of Brac and Solta, rising proudly out of the Adriatic like stepping stones between Hvar and the mainland.

Puis, disputée à une seule reprise entre 2002 et 2014 (2007), elle a été remise au goût du jour en 2015 par l’un des meilleurs coureurs croates de l’histoire, le vainqueur de l’édition 1998 Vladimir Milholjevic. Entre autres publications destinées à faire la publicité de sa rédemption, le coureur a photographié ses jambes, toutes veines dehors.La photo a impressionné les internautes et provoqué des réactions, la plupart du temps dégoûtées, parfois amusées. It’s not a col, a pass or anything else that will give you bragging rights, it’s just a stunning road. Rocky hillsides, kids on bikes, tethered horses and stone walls flash past like a video on fast forward until we come to an abrupt stop in front of a boisterous crowd in the 16th century village of Brusje. From September to May flights operate twice a week. For 2km or 3km the ride turns into a two-up TT.
