A big part of what makes a good route is the bicycle. So we rely on excellence and collaboration of Cicles Sans SPECIALIZED CONCEPT STORE for our routes.
The route will first take you a chance to spin out your legs before facing Alt de Les Ventoses, 8 km climb, first of today’s passes, after a gentle descent, before climbing gently 17 km to Alt del Pontonenc. Along the way, we will see a gradual change in landscape and tempo, mountains give away to the vineyards and hills. From there we will go to La Llacuna for a “esmorzar de forquilla” (breakfast/brunch tasting menu) . After enjoy the deserved meal, a long descent will take us to the town of Guardiola to rise Alt de Font-Rubí, last 9 km climb, before returning to Vilafranca.

TARMAC SL4
The Tarmac doesn’t do one thing well, it does everything exceptionally—which is why it’s been ridden to victory in all three Grand Tours. The Tarmac’s advanced materials add a modern edge to the lively character of a classic race bike, while its Rider-First Engineered™ design ensures that the Tarmac sprints, corners, and descends with uniform excellence across every size.
ROUBAIX SL4
Named for one of the sport’s most storied and demanding races, the Roubaix is built to excel on the worst roads and in nasty conditions. Smoother is faster, so the Roubaix’s carbon construction is designed to maximize vertical compliance, while Zertz inserts and a CG-R seatpost work to absorb road chatter. And to make the Roubaix feel stable and comfortable on the longest of rides, the frame is built with our Endurance Geometry.
AMIRA
Sure, you train hard and eat right, but there’s just one thing missing—an edge. The Amira gives you two. First, there’s the performance edge you get from its FACT carbon frame and tapered head tube. The combination results in responsive handling and true get-up-and-go accelerations. Then comes the psychological edge. The feeling that, when teamed up with a lightweight, high-performance machine, there’s no limit to what you can achieve together.
