SwanCoaching Cycling Camp at Solitude Pointe
in the beautiful upstate of South Carolina

Location: Cleveland, SC (30 minutes north of Greenville, SC)
Camp dates: Feb 2009 (exact dates TBD)*

Join SwanCoaching and a special guest professional cyclist for an incredible start to your 2009 cycling season. Experience the stunning scenery and quiet country roads of upstate South Carolina. These picturesque, lightly traveled roads provide some of the best riding routes in the country and a variety of challenging climbs. If weather permits one of the highlight rides will take us all the way up onto the Blue Ridge Parkway and elevations over 5,000 ft. There will also be plenty of miles on rolling terrain with great smooth pavement.

The camp will be based at a quiet camping resort nestled up against the hills along a quiet road and trout stream. The cozy and relaxing cabins are a quiet escape after a hard day of riding. All cabins have small kitchens allowing you to stay in and cook if you like. Check out the Solitude Pointe website for more details on the headquarters for the camp.

Stay tuned for further details or contact Kevin for the latest info on this exciting camp.
