Barcelona 2019 route summary (1491 downloads )We have created route files for each day, in GPX, TCX and Google Earth format. These detail not just the start and end points for each day, but also the meeting points where the support crew will be waiting with refreshments.
All the route files are stored in this DropBox folder, or can be accessed individually from the table below. (Note: Dropbox does not allow a preview of these files, either select the file(s) you want and press the ‘Download’ button, or put your mouse over the file you want, then click on the three dots (…) and choose the ‘Download’ option.)

You can easily load each GPX file into Bikehike to see the precise details (www.bikehike.co.uk -> Course Creator -> (OK to message about Google Maps not loading) -> Load Route -> (Select GPX filename) -> Upload Route).
We do suggest riders check the route files have actually loaded onto their GPS units, confirming they can see the map for each day and the metrics look right.
Experience has shown us it’s far better to take a little time to do this beforehand, than discover problems just as you are wanting to set off at the start of the day.
