Anyone interested in 7 day Stage Race crossing from one coast of Spain to the other along the ridge of the Pyrenees mountains . . . .
The "Transpyr Adventure", which is organised by the Transpyr Cycle Club and covers a total of approximately 800km, broken down into different stages, with a cumulative elevation gain close to 20,000m and whose difficulty can be described as "very high" . . . may be just for you.
The race passed through Ainsa last Wednesday evening where the days stage finished next to the Rio Cinca. I popped along to have a look, took some pictures and chatted to a few people. This year there were around 300 riders competing. It looked well organised and the riders coming in seemed to be enjoying themselves. Ainsa is at roughly the half way point.

And here are some of the race T's & C's . . . :-)
17. Distances and elevation gain may vary considerably due to last minute changes of routing motivated by reasons of
force majeure or other reasons deemed necessary by the race organization. The distances and elevation gain of each day will be announced at the technical meeting or briefing, held on the day prior to each stage. The organization reserves the right to change the route of the event at any time.
18. The event will be undertaken by following a track specified by the event organization. The organization may, at its discretion, post signage in order to help participants remain safe, or to prevent accidents
19. The route, and therefore the track file,
is confidential until the start of the event or until shortly before the start of the event. The organization is not responsible if said route is followed outside of the dates of the organized TRANSPYR 2018 event.
