DETAILS
Guaranteed entry into the 2017 Gran Fondo Quebrantahuesos, Spain’s largest Cyclosportive is now available with Sports Tours International. The best Cyclosportive that you have never heard of. A must-do event.
As this event passes through spectacular protected areas of natural beauty and for the participant’s safety, the number of cyclists is limited to a relatively small field. For this reason and given the high demand to enter, there is a lottery and the event is vastly over-subscribed so is extremely difficult to get into. Hotels in the area are also very difficult to get. That’s where we come in!
You have the choice of 2 types of entry:
Both entries include a Spanish day license worth €10 which is obligatory to take part in the event.
1. Front pen behind VIP riders and riders with previous top times – available at £170 per entry
2. Normal entry based on rider’s previous performance in the Quebrantahuesos or another Gran Fondo or Sportive – available at £120 per entry
Buy your entry with a 2 or 3 night’s hotel stay and get a £10 discount.
