About this Event
The name says it all! Tocar la Roca (Touch the Rock). Malaga to Gibraltar! We’ve got a brand new adventure lined up that promises to be legendary. We're heading straight for Gibraltar during one of the best times of the year to ride around here. Most of the route will be on smooth tarmac, but we're throwing in a few gravel sections to spice things up. This gives the ride a fun twist and means we’ll have a great mix of different bikes in the group! Upon reaching Gibraltar and completing the ritual of touching the rock, we’ll all celebrate together. We will welcome people into town as they arrive with a drink by the sea side.
