Madrid-Gijon-Madrid 2026 (1200km Audax)


This has been my 12th Super Brevet (13th if I count London Floris London)

I feel I can claim I know a few things about long distance cycling.


I knew it could be very hot in central Spain. 


It was.


I knew it would rain all the time the route went through Asturias.


It did.


I knew I was in great company and I was going to have a fantastic time.


I was and I had it.


I also knew I was going to ride easy the whole route.


I did.


What I didn’t know was how tiring it is to ride easy. I am completely wasted.


Keep learning young grasshopper
