Participant’s advice
Hydration . Stay well hydrated during the route.
The maximum slope of the Pradell Pass is near 23%, the minimum gear we recommend is 34×30.
Be very cautious during descents, specially in Coll de la Batallola and Coll de Josa.
La Ruta Minera is a personal challenge, not a cycling competition. You must always respect the traffic laws, because vehicles circulation is open.
If you feel sick, you can call the sanitaire services or to take the broom wagon (Big broom bus, from Tuixent until the end)
La Ruta Minera is VERY tough. Save your energy because you will need it at the end.
The waste, first on your pocket, then to the waste containers. It will be waste containers in every feeding zone. Throw the waste to the road could be cause of desqualification.
