what would you, as a cyclist, like to see/get from a company offering training and touring holidays in the marche area of italy?....

Besides wine and seafood from that region?

The only thing that comes immediately to mind is bicycle transportation arrangements...

Let me know if you need a tour guide!

Like a training map, the coaching license for the coach doing the training, the training program you'll be working with (strength? hills? power? etc.). The price, of course. How long the trip is for, what does it include with the price, who will lead the rides, will you have a support van.

Those are some of the first questions that come to my mind.

Just thought of something else that would help make the experience for the riders: At various points along the trip, have the chase-van driver stop and take pictures of the cyclists with some great backgrounds while they are riding. It's easy to get snapshots of ourselves standing next to our bikes, but we all want to see ourselves in action, don't we?

China sounds good to me. Do they have many professional cycling tours in China?
