Elizabeth couldn’t have been more helpful, and the bikes were great (we rented three hybrid bikes and panniers - all brand new and the best hybrid I’ve ever ridden - could barely tell we had our luggage on the back) Thank you!

Our group of six had a truly amazing day on our bike tour with Tuscany Bicycle. Upon arrival, Elizabeth wisely recommended that we switch to e-bikes for maximum enjoyment. We’re so glad we took the advice. Our ride took us through the beautiful Tuscan countryside, past a castle and vineyards and culminated with a wine tasting. Elizabeth and Susanna were patient and generous guides and excellent e-bike coaches. We enjoyed their stories of cycling, local history and wines of the Chianti region. It could not have been a better day - truly a flawless experience.

Tuscany bicycle is amazing! Elizabeth and Susanna curated a tour that my husband and I will never forget. They are knowledgeable, passionate and fun! You must book a tour or rent a bike from them if you are in or around Tuscany. They are the best!

If you’re traveling to the Tuscany region, Tuscany Bicycle is a no hassle, one stop shop for bicycles and so much more, I highly recommend them. We rented two e-bikes from Tuscany Bicycle for a month during our stay in Siena. The bikes were high quality, clean and worked great. Elizabeth was awesome in accommodating our requests and questions. Mark and Susanna gave us two separate tours and a lifetime of great memories. Thank you all so much for everything!

She saw one of her life long, bike dreams come true, with the foundation of Tuscany Bicycle in 2015. Elizabeth is a native of Pennsylvania, USA, where she grew up mountain biking and enjoying terrain similar to Tuscany for cycling. In the late 1980’s, while still a teenager, Elizabeth enrolled at the Università Cattolica in Milan, and subsequently fell in love with road cycling, the racing scene, and many of the artisanal framebuilders of Northern Italy. A lifelong love affair with Italian cycling had officially begun !

In the years which followed, Elizabeth wore the prized Santini Jersey with “Campionessa della Lombardia” written across the front, three times. In the 1990’s, Elizabeth raced in numerous mountain bike, road cycling and track events, both at the amateur and pro level.

Elizabeth has been involved in the cycling active travel industry for the last 25 years, from personally guiding hundreds of multiday cycling holidays, to currently owning her own boutique cycling tour company called Tuscany Bicycle Travel, a purveyor of unique and delightful cycling adventures, geared towards discriminating, avid cyclists looking to explore the roads less traveled, known only to locals.

Elizabeth and her dynamic and energetic staff, look forward to making your cycling dreams come true – now, shut up legs !!!
