95.85 km
2,273 m
Day 1 From civilisation to the foot of the Pyrinees.
07:30 Leaving Xiqui’s apartment for the train to Terrassa. Train takes 45 minutes and to save sleep, I suggest we bring sandwiches to eat on the train.
08:30, Km 00. Leaving Terrassa for a nice start up climb over the Rellinars pass with great morning views of the mighty Montserrat mountain.
Km 40 Passing through Manresa, the city where we will end the tour on Sunday.
Km 55 Lunch stop in Suria. NOTE: Last chance to stock up on food for the next 24 hours! We might be able to find small restaurants where we can buy water and stuff but we won’t pass through anymore larger towns with supermarkets.
Km 72 Gravel starts here! :) For the rest of the day there will only be short segments of paved road.
Km 93 As a standard feature on CAMP Styrbjörn, Day 1 ends with a steep climb on fire roads. Expect 300 hm climb in the last 2 kms.
Km 95, Done for the day! Bush camping on old farm land. Strava says 4:30 h but I expect us to use at least 7 h to get here. Hopefully we’ll be here around 17:00 to chill in the mountains a bit.
