Each year Roger Canham goes away with a couple of mates to do an early season training week, to get away from the snow and ice. He has done CLS in Lanzarote quite a bit so last year he changed to http://www.playitas.info/ in Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands, and he says it was great.
Roger says:
" I have just booked up for January 2012.
The flights are £209 + £40 bike fee as follows:
28 January 2012 - East Midlands (EMA) to Fuerteventura (FUE)
Flight: TCX5052 - Departs: 07:00, Arrives: 11:25

4 February 2012 - Fuerteventura (FUE) to East Midlands (EMA)

Accommodation we have booked via 01223 370017 UK office:
Apartment - for 7 nights - from the 28th of January to the 4th of February 2012
The cost for staying in the standard apartment is 106.00 UK Pounds per night X 7 nights = £742.00 on self-catering basis.
Studios are also available @ £76.5 per day, sleeping 3 adults.
A Standard room takes 4 adults, with a bedroom that has 3 single beds and a sofa bed in the sitting room.
A Studio takes 3 adults, with an open plan space, with two sofa beds and a normal bed.
We train pretty hard for the seven days, swimming at least an hour a day in the 50m pool, ride 3 – 5 hrs and run most days as well.
I do put together a rough programme and the people that come along just do all or some of what I have planned.
I am happy to open up the trip to anyone from the club that fancies joining in the camp. I am not a coach but do have a fair idea of what is required.
The more the merrier but we are there to train not be out on the lash every night. Time away from the family is precious so we try to make the most of the opportunity.
Do you think it would be of interest to anyone else?
Regards
Roger"
