Every finisher has a story to tell and the finish line is where they all come together.
After days out on the route, riders are welcomed by family and friends who’ve been dot-watching every kilometre, counting down the minutes until they finally arrive. Those first hugs say it all.
With the arrival of our lanterne rouge, Aure Novo, our traditional pizza party officially got underway. The perfect way to celebrate, with plenty of pizza, cold beers, and endless stories from the road.
Massive congratulations to everyone who took on this gravel adventure. You made it one to remember!

Tobias Lendemann and Martin Dotti arrived in Vitoria yesterday, becoming the first pair to finish .
The Swiss duo built their ride around a clear strategy, keeping a steady pace and making sure they never ran short on supplies. Before reaching CP4, they showed us exactly what that meant by buying 20 bottles of Aquarius to fill their hydration bags.
An incredible ride from start to finish. Congratulations, guys!

Muro de Aguas always welcomes our riders with some of the most unique landscapes on the route. Dry gravel roads, rugged hills and wind turbines stretching across the horizon.
Known for its warm hospitality, the village once again came out to cheer on every rider passing through its picturesque streets. Many also took the chance to refill their bottles at the village’s iconic Sixteen Spouts Fountain, whose sixteen generous spouts have remarkably never stopped flowing, even during the longest periods of drought.

Nerea becomes the first female finisher of
Riding with a smile from the start all the way to the finish, Nerea crossed the line 20th overall, full of unforgettable memories.
She mentioned that the biggest challenge was the cold during the first night, especially for someone like her who comes from the south of Spain. But she kept pushing through and never gave up.
Big kudos to her!

Mid-pack riders rolled through Ujué yesterday.
Back on the official Basajaun route after three years, this iconic hilltop village welcomes riders with a steep climb to the top. It’s all worth it though, as Ujué is officially recognised as one of Spain’s most beautiful villages.

Media Car 2 caught up with Nerea (cap107) on the climb up to Piqueras. She was feeling strong after a solid night’s sleep and told us she’s planning to keep riding right through the night 🌒
Ten women are still out there taking on , showing incredible determination and grit every kilometer of the way.
We couldn’t be happier to have them on this adventure.
