CYCLOCAT is a web site from a good friend, where you can found routes all over Catalunya (still growing) to ride with your bike in safety routes without cars. Most of the routes are made for gravel bikes.
Ladies & Gentlemen's Gravel Ride BCN - GRN is a gravel race using only Cyclocat routes.
Saturday was about showing the track and the welcome to the riders. I was helping Joan because he was busy being a Gentleman.
Sunday morning and ready to race. The race began in the BH Concept Store, near Barceloneta.
The only thing was: HARD RAIN. It was raining very hard, but we got a lot of people ready to race.
We were the last to go, Joan and I were ready to get deep into the rain!
All began easy, only having some rain. But all came at the first gravel section. Mud, mud & mud!
The first checkpoint was like a gods gift! A chocolate croissant.
After the 3rd checkpoint, the rain began to stop, and we got gravel and muddy surface, the best to ride!
We arrived to Girona super dirty, but we got lot of fun! It was awesome! 146km in gravel roads, with mud and rain. It can't be better.
Can't wait for the next one!
