🚴‍♂️ Operation: Bike Ride: Barcelona to Martorell

🚴‍♂️🚨 BREAKING NEWS: BARCELONA RESIDENTS DISCOVER BICYCLES CAN ACTUALLY LEAVE BARCELONA! 🌍😂

THIS SATURDAY, WE'RE CYCLING TO COLÒNIA GÜELL!

Yes. Outside Barcelona.

On bicycles.

Using our own legs.

WITHOUT AN ELECTRIC SCOOTER, A METRO CARD OR AN UBER. 💀

Apparently, bicycles aren't just decorative objects you buy in Decathlon and leave on your balcony for three years.

THEY CAN ACTUALLY TAKE YOU PLACES.

We were as shocked as you are.

🚴 THE GREAT COLÒNIA GÜELL EXPEDITION

📅 SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 2026

🕧 12:47 PM — BECAUSE 12:30 IS TOO PREDICTABLE

📍 DESTINATION: COLÒNIA GÜELL

🚴 ACTIVITY: SOCIAL CYCLING + EXPLORING + QUESTIONABLE LIFE DECISIONS

🎟️ FREE TO JOIN!

📌 Meeting point: To be confirmed

We'll cycle together towards the historic Colònia Güell, explore the area, enjoy the scenery and pretend this was all part of our highly sophisticated fitness programme.

SPOILER: IT'S MOSTLY AN EXCUSE TO MEET PEOPLE AND GO SOMEWHERE NICE. 😂

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🧠 WHAT TO EXPECT

🚴 Cycling with international people who may or may not know what gear they're supposed to use.

🌳 Fresh air, countryside views and the terrifying discovery that nature doesn't have Wi-Fi everywhere.

🏛️ Exploring Colònia Güell, a historic village famous for its connection to Antoni Gaudí.

📸 Photos proving to your friends that you occasionally do things involving daylight.

😂 Conversations that begin with "Where are you from?" and end with "WHY IS THERE ANOTHER HILL?!"

❤️ New friendships, beautiful scenery and possibly a renewed appreciation for public transport.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🚨 IMPORTANT: THIS IS NOT THE TOUR DE FRANCE

You don't need a €7,000 carbon-fibre bicycle.

You don't need to wear Lycra so tight that your internal organs start negotiating their freedom.

And you definitely don't need to introduce yourself by your average watts per kilogram.

THIS IS A SOCIAL CYCLING OUTING, NOT AN OLYMPIC QUALIFYING EVENT.

However, you should be comfortable cycling for a sustained distance, riding safely with others and handling the return journey.

Bring a roadworthy bicycle, helmet, water, a charged phone and anything else you need for a safe ride.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🏛️ A MESSAGE FROM ANTONI GAUDÍ

We cannot confirm this historically, but we strongly suspect Gaudí would have appreciated people cycling to see his work.

He might have said:

"PLEASE ADMIRE MY ARCHITECTURE."

Not:

"PLEASE BLOCK THE ENTIRE CYCLE PATH WHILE TAKING 47 SELFIES."

Let's respect both his legacy and everyone else's ability to move. 😂

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🙋 COMING ALONE?

PERFECT.

That's why we do these activities.

You'll arrive with a bicycle and possibly zero friends.

You might return with new friends, great memories and legs that have submitted an official complaint.

THAT'S WHAT WE CALL PERSONAL GROWTH. 🚴‍♂️💀

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🚨 FINAL WARNING

You have two options:

OPTION A: Spend Saturday explaining to people that you really should exercise more.

OPTION B: Actually get on your bicycle, meet international people, discover Colònia Güell and return with photographic evidence that your legs still work.

SATURDAY. 12:47 PM. COLÒNIA GÜELL.

Your bicycle has been waiting for this moment.
