Details

Get ready for 130km and 2300m of proper climbing.

We start sharp at 9:00 AM from Plaça de Lesseps with an immediate attack on Arrabassada. Hold your horses; there is plenty more to come. We’ll regroup at the top, roll through Sant Cugat, and draft along the Llobregat toward Olesa. After the "appetizer" at Vacarisses, we hit the main course: the 12km ascent of Collada de l'Obac. The way back includes a much-needed coffee in Terrassa before the final sting of Molins (and the Parking climb for those who still have legs).

Depending on group size and pace, we may split into a faster and a steadier group. We will regroup at the top of each climb.
As a reference for climbing pace, an Arrabassada time around 16 minutes fits the expected level.
