So, we'd booked a cheeky overnight stay in the Jewish Quarter (who knew?) of Girona, having read about Girona being a cycling Mecca. It was cool seeing pro teams zipping around. I wanted to grab a local club jersey as a memento and had noticed Bike Breaks on our way to the hotel. We popped by on our return to the train station and what a place! Dave spoke to us with such enthusiasm and knowledge, it was hard not to be enthused ourselves! He explained that they offer many services, 1 of which was selling used/unused pro team kit. Not exactly what I wanted but was great! I am now the proud owner of a couple of bits of Trek Segafredo gear, from a young cyclist (who will have to remain nameless!). We look forward to seeing Sasha at the top of Wimbledon hill in August! Great shop, lovely staff. Nice one 😊

Exceptional shop where they go above and beyond the call of duty. If you visit Girona and need a bike. Look no further. A great team!! I have just returned for a few days and the service in the new shop was better than ever.

Whatever your cycling need, you can always go and ask here and the Bike Breaks team will be smiling and keen to assist. Such a friendly group and fantastic service. Awesome bikes, best people, cycling gear and a great, social (very welcoming) Thursday shop ride!

Dave, can't thank you enough for taking the time to spend with us the other day, supplying the kit, guiding to San Miguel, and for putting up with a short, fat, slow, sweaty Scotsman!!! Being in the shop after the ride just showed exactly how Bike Breaks goes the extra mile, place was buzzing with people and you and the staff took the time to ensure everyone was looked after!! Moltes gràcies!!!read more

If you are interested in doing a great group ride led by some great hosts - look no further! Dave is a leader. He ensures everyone is satisfied and accommodates everyone to the best of his ability with a fantastic positive attitude. The Thursday ride I did Sept. 13th was legendary. 3 routes were led by Daves capable Lieutenants. A Long, Medium and Short ride after a Group neutral warm up. The riders who show up are pleasant and safe. Socially and physically a super experience. Thanks Dave and your Team!read more

The only bike shop in Girona that really matters

We had a flawless experience, renting 2 bikes for 10 days. Your rental includes basic wrenches, tools, patch kit, and bottles. If you want to further minimize your packing, rent pedals and helmet, too. As with all rentals, give the bike and your equipment (shoes, for example) a run through to get final adjustments and quirks ironed out. The bikes are high quality and very well maintained. The team are very friendly and clearly love what they're doing. Easy to get to - just follow their directions. It took less than an hour after we parked to get bikes, make changes/adjustments, and be on our way. Will definitely use them over and overread more

Whilst I recommend Bike Breaks to all my friends, and my clients visiting Girona, it was high time I put pen to paper and review you guys online. The custom Cannondale Synapse for my Mum that you put together, based on one of last year's machines, with 70-year old friendly gearing, and one-sided shifting to accommodate her dodgy hand, is a work of art and genius! I'm sure she'll see many more years of the Girona Gran Fondo on it! Maybe she'll force you guys to create an 80+ age group!! Moltes gracies to you all.read more

COME HERE FOR EXCELLENCE! These people are highly experienced, extremely helpful, and make sure you have everything you need for a fantastic cycling experience, whether you’re a competitive MAMIL or less competitive,’enjoying the scenery’ kind of gall! We had high quality bikes which were adjusted perfectly for us, and helped with different kinds of routes to suite the needs of each pair in our foursome. The people are so genuine, so knowledgeable and friendly, and keen to help you get the very best out of your cycling adventures. Definitely recommend, will definitely come back and use this wonderful company. Foxes and Alexanders, UK. Thank you very much!read more

Fabulous service as usual from Saskia and Dave, helped me out after wrecking my own bike so that I can continue to pedal around Catalunya. Loved the shop rid, definitely what cycling is about the ordinary mixing with the Olympic. No idea why you would use any other bike hire or go to any other region for riding as this area is perfect with awesome hosts.read more
