Arrive Saturday afternoon into Granada.
From here we will collect you and take you to Lanjaron.
Eat, build your bike and then do a quick trail (2-3hrs)
from the door to make sure your bike is in good working
order.
Sunday.
Breakfast at your leisure, we usually aim to leave
the house at 10.30-11.00. We take lunch with us and
depending on how long you/the group want to ride for
we might do a ride from Haza de Lino to Castell de
ferro via Lujar. 2500m descending, 80 per cent singletrack,
NO TARMAC and 1100m of climbing. Total ride time usually
about 5 hours.
Monday.
Usually drive to above Bubion, takes about an hour
so we stop and get a good strong coffee and tostada
from a cafe en route. We start at a height of 2200m
and descend to 670 on over 30km of singletrack - don't
think it's easy descending, it can wear you out like
any good climb!
Tuesday.
Riding from the door we climb 20km to 2000m to start
a super fast, technical descent back into Lanjaron.
The adrenalin keeps your legs working but you'll be
glad of disc brakes as your forearms pump up and you
struggle to hold on! The ENTIRE descent is on singletrack
and it is a blast.
Wednesday.
Day off! We recommend you do the same to make the
most of the rest of the weeks riding. Unless you're
a GOOD pro/elite rider you will be tired and Granada
is well worth a visit as well, we know you might not
want a day off the bike, but trust us...You'll have
more fun if you do.
Thursday.
Drive into Granada for an epic around the
Sierra Nevada. Depending on the time of year and if
the top is clear of snow we would embark on an 8hr
fast, lung busting (due to the altitude being over
3000m) ride back to Lanjaron. This is not for the
faint hearted....The singletrack is great but the
length of the ride dictates a quicker pace!
Friday.
From the day before you will be tired! A very lazy
breakfast and much later start. Most take the day
off and go sight seeing in Granada but for the super
keen we have a selection of technical singletrack
blasts from the door. Usually 2-3 hours in duration
although it often feels much shorter as your concentration
on the riding passes the time!
Saturday.
Home!
