Cycling in Girona, Looking back at 2012

We are ready to show you new roads in 2013

In 2012 we sure had a good time getting to know so many new friends and have old friends return. We are proud to have opened the new Bikecat Botiga Ciclista, all ready with our coffee machine or post-ride cerveza, to watch the grand tours of 2013.

Here is a look back at 2012. Hope you enjoy!


In 2013, we are excited to offer self-guided rides with gps. The roads around Girona have great variety but can be tricky just using a map, especially since we like to ride on the smallest roads possible. This is a good option for those who prefer to find their own way.

Transpirinaica

We had a great time planning the new Bikecat Trans-Pyrenees Cycling Tour. I especially enjoyed seeing new parts of Spain with magnificent late Spring, snow-covered Pyrenees almost always within view. Starting in La Seu d´Urgell in the Catalan Pyrenees, you really appreciate how the culture, food, and even language changes across the country to Basque Country. From Catalan, to Spanish and then the impossible to understand Basque language (Euskera), which has linguists still puzzled over the origins. Landing in San Sebastian on the seaside will be the perfect way to end a week with plenty of challenging riding. I could still be out there wandering those peaceful roads...Debbie
