After the last climb, there's only one goal: into the cool water! Whether it's a mountain lake, pool or sea - anyone who loves road cycling knows how good it feels to jump into the water after a tour. In some regions, a dip after a bike ride is as much a part of the daily routine as a cappuccino before the start. That's why we say: Road bike & swim!

The cool water: a pick-me-up & decelerator at the same time
What is often just a quick dip in the water after a road bike tour quickly unfolds its full effect: a refreshing swim revitalises the body, boosts regeneration and allows you to relax. Whether it's the sparkling sea, a turquoise-coloured lake or a well-tempered pool - the cool water is more than just refreshment. A road bike and a swim is a reward, a reset button and a moment of happiness all in one. And that's why the perfect road bike holiday simply can't be complete without it.
All-round talent swimming
Switching off after cycling and swimming a few lengths not only has a great relaxing effect, but also has a positive effect on regeneration:
- gentle, joint-friendly workout for the heart and circulation
- good fitness and endurance training
- Resistance training for arm, shoulder and gluteal muscles, abdomen and torso
- Veins in the legs are actively strengthened
