The Pura Vida Experience
Challenges includes:
+ 6 night hotel accommodation at a local, tropical lodge, The Pura Vida Hotel.
This is a beautiful property, filled with tropical gardens, open green space, exotic birds, and comfortable private lodges. The entire property is for the sole use of our athletes. All athletes will have access to high-speed Wifi, a private bedroom and private bath.
Contact us if you are interested in sharing a room for a discount, or you will be traveling with someone who does not want to participate in the Challenge and would like to share a room.
+ Check in is Friday and check out is Thursday.
+ We ride Saturday - Wednesday with an athlete and community celebration (party) Wednesday night. Most athletes fly in Friday and leave the following Thursday. If you are interested in coming in early or extending your stay, please contact the Pura Vida Hotel to reserve additional nights.
+ Airport pick-up and drop off. San Jose International Airport is 15 mins away.
+ Food: Daily breakfast made to order (we work with all dietary requirements). Traditional Costa Rican breakfast typically consists of eggs, rice and beans ("gallo pinto"), fresh tropical fruits, bread pudding, coffee, and homemade smoothies ("batidos"). You'll also receive a delicious post ride meal, prepared by local legend and long time friend, Norman. Relax after your ride, and enjoy a post-ride lunch, cooked to order, made from organic ingredients sourced at the farmer's markets.
+ Challenge Celebration: A celebratory dinner with a mix of our local riders, local support team, local chefs, and longtime friends. It's a great way to unwind from 5 days of epic riding, share stories, photos, and videos, and give thanks to the community that helped make the event so special.
