Why this ride

Scenery first, traffic last, with checkpoints that make sense on a bike. This road trip is shaped as a ride, not as a shortcut: leave the start cleanly, use the first checkpoint for fuel and weather discipline, then let the middle 103 km be the part you remember. The best part sits around Cap de Creus Coastal Ride scenic road, Cap de Creus Coastal Ride high point, Cap de Creus Coastal Ride photo pull-off, while Cap de Creus Coastal Ride fuel gate and Cap de Creus Coastal Ride food stop keep the day practical instead of turning it into a fuel hunt. Check the selected map before departure: scenic sections, transfer sections, speed/control reminders, risk points and the GPX checkpoint order are deliberately visible so the route is understandable before the engine starts. Ride it early if the area is popular, keep the photo stops legal, and shorten the route if weather, daylight or energy stops agreeing with the plan.
