The most exposed rock-cut trail in the world

Without a fixed course, a gravel biking adventure

Episode 1: The Mountains

Going to the mountains is easy, but finding the perfect route to fully enjoy a gravel bike, in a rugged and complicated environment, is not so easy. Luckily this time I had an extra help! A few weeks ago I had received the new SR Suntour GVX fork at home, a fork aimed at the user of gravel bikes, still in the prototype phase, but that is always the best excuse to be able to push it to the limit, without fear of it breaking (laughs).

The destination - epic trails

I admit that I have an obsession, nothing bad, do not think anything strange, it is about writing down in a notebook all the places where I would like to ride a bicycle and that catch my attention. Many of them I see on television, magazines or the Internet ... I have no geographical limits, in fact the more distant the country and the place the better (laughs). But there is something that never ceases to amaze me and that is that on many occasions near our homes, in the areas where we live, we have fantastic places and many times really incredible, but because of the "normalization" that we do of the environment they no longer call our attention, but they are also amazing places.

I have had my eye on this area of ​​the Pre-Pyrenees for many years ago. For one thing or another, he had never squared everything to go to explore the area in a thorough way. This is what I mentioned before that happens with the places that we have close to home. Also, good guy Kilian Bron (a rider I respect a lot) had made a POV video viral in that area, so it didn't make much sense to go there with my #mountainbike to take some videos or pictures. But it did make sense to do it with a gravel. Everything would be much purer, more precise and therefore much more dangerous. A new level of riding that the Suntour GVX fork would give me direct access to.

The Desfiladero de Monrebey or also called Congost de Mont-Rebei is the natural border between the regions of Aragon and Catalonia, between the regions of Ribagorza and Pallars Jussa. Without a doubt, a super spectacular and simply unique place.
