MEET THE
BREAKAWAY TEAM
We’re a small, family-run company helping everyday cyclists achieve extraordinary things — with fully customised cycling tours through France, Italy, and beyond.From your first call to your final descent, we take care of everything. You’ll get personal attention, deep local knowledge, and a tour built entirely around your goals, your pace, and your idea of adventure. Whether you’re training for a bucket-list climb or just want to ride somewhere spectacular, we’ll help you get there — and then go further than you thought possible.We’ve seen first-timers conquer the Stelvio, and hesitant climbers reach the summit of Alpe d’Huez with tears (and huge smiles). Every single rider we’ve guided has gone further than they believed they could.
Led by Janice Dougall, CEO and passionate cyclist, Breakaway Cycle Tours has helped many riders turn their cycling dreams into reality.
THE BOSS
Janice Dougall
“For me, cycling in France is one of life’s purest joys — the wind in your hair, the sun on your back, and endless roads winding through breathtaking landscapes. It’s freedom, discovery, and beauty all at once. At Breakaway Cycle Tours, we exist to share that feeling — to open up the magic of these rides to every guest.”
CEO and Founder.
