Sitges Intermediate ⚡️⚡️⚡️ | 115km 1200m
Details
This Saturday we’re heading south for a fast, punchy ride: a solid climb up to Begues and the iconic coastal road of Sitges.
We’ll meet under the Venetian Towers in Plaça Espanya at 10:00 AM, then roll out toward El Prat for a steady warm-up. Expect a solid push on the flats with smooth rotations, drafting, and clean group work. From Gavà we take on Collada Jaume Petit up to Begues, a consistent climb that sets the pace for the day.
From Begues, the route continues on rolling terrain toward Sitges. After the descent, we move onto the coastal road, then finish with a flat section through Castelldefels.
Depending on group size and pace, we may split into a faster and a steadier group. We will regroup after the descents.
On the flats, expect 40–45 km/h with proper drafting. As a reference for climbing pace, an Arrabassada time around 16 minutes fits the expected level.
