Pyrenees Extreme!
After a rainy afternoon, we are off to a cool but sunny start. The road takes us past Montserrat but due to the low clouds in the morning, not something that we can enjoy as a view unfortunately, that said, it's not like the region doesn't have amazong virws everywhere! A warm-up day of 370 kms to our monsatery hotel for the night.
Our longest day of the tour, but packed with awesome roads and mountain passes. Local wildlife, food and sights. But we're here for the sandpaper gripping asphalt.
A rest day doesn't mean rest, it means we stay in one hotel, so the ride is optional and given that it is "short and curvey" (short as the crow flies) we all went out for a lubch by the beach.
Off we ride towards France, leaving behind grippy sandpaper like asphalt for just as grippy brand new roads? Beautiful surprise as we ride into the land of wine and cheese, to find how much development in infrastructures has been done over this past year. Let's go!
Our tour arrives at it's final day, we ride back towards Castelldefels through some more curvy roads and the Garrotxa and Montseny national parks.
Thanks for an awesome tour, for the camaraderie and great afternoons with a beer after long days of Pyrenees Extreme riding!
