This camp is built around one simple idea: ride great gravel, learn fast, recover well and actually enjoy the week.
We’ll spend the days on the quiet gravel roads around Lleida, Catalonia, mixing beautiful rides with practical coaching you can use immediately: pacing, climbing rhythm, handling, and smart race prep (without turning it into a military training camp).
The week is structured so you feel ready for the Ranxo Gravel Race, not just fitness-wise, but also in how to manage effort over a full event and ride with more confidence.
Everything around the riding is taken care of accommodation, meals, transfers, and a full support team (coach, physio, mechanic). So you can focus on what matters: progress on the bike + a great week with a great group.
And at the end of the week, there’s the Ranxo Gravel Race. You can race it if you want… or simply join the vibe, cheer, and enjoy the day. Totally optional. No pressure.

MORE ABOUT RANXO GRAVEL RACE:
Ranxo is the kind of gravel race that feels like a really good adventure day.
It happens in Ponts (Lleida), Catalonia, and the route takes you through quiet countryside, wide gravel roads, gentle rolling climbs, and a few faster sections where you can just find your rhythm and enjoy the ride. Most of it is gravel, with small bits of tarmac connecting the sections.
What’s nice is that it works for different riders. You can pick the distance that fits you:
~68 km (about 1,020 m climbing)
~100 km (about 1,480 m climbing)
~160 km (about 1,930 m climbing)
For our camp, it’s the perfect final day because you can use everything you practiced during the week: pacing, fueling, staying calm when it gets hard, and riding smooth even when you’re tired.
And just to be clear: racing is optional.
You can start it if you feel like it… or simply enjoy the atmosphere, cheer for the group, and have a beautiful last day together.

Check-in is at 15:00 on the day of arrival, and check-out is by 11:00 on the day of departure.
Same experience, same vibe just pick your week.
It’s both. You’ll ride every day and build confidence but the vibe is relaxed, not competitive. Think: rides in the morning, pool or wine in the afternoon.
Not at all. Fitness level doesn’t matter, we adapt the ride to the group.
If you’re comfortable riding at a steady pace for a few hours, you’ll be just fine.
Want to push harder? There’s always an option to add extra kilometers.

We recommend it. While the camp includes activity coverage, personal travel insurance is always a smart idea, especially if you’re bringing your bike.
Please be aware: If you get injured and need to be flown home, our insurance won’t cover that. We recommend personal travel insurance that includes repatriation.
Please be aware: If you get injured and need to be flown home, our insurance won’t cover that. We recommend personal travel insurance that includes repatriation.
Flights, bike rental (if needed), drinks outside of meals and tastings, personal expenses, and any extra treatments beyond the ones included. We also recommend having your own travel insurance.
We ride in the mornings, usually 2–4 hours depending on the route. Afternoons are for recovery, lunch, optional activities, or just relaxing. Evenings are slow...dinner, wine, and good company.
A well-maintained MTB with decent suspension and good tires. If you’re unsure, we’ll help you check. Need to rent one? We can help arrange that too.
If you come with a plus one, you’ll of course share a room. If you’re coming solo, you’ll have your own private room, no sharing with strangers.
Summer! Expect warm, sunny days (25–35°C), perfect for early rides and long evenings outdoors. Bring sunscreen, and leave your winter layers at home.
No problem. Let us know in advance and our chef will take care of it.
You’ll ride a mix of scenic vineyard routes, flowing singletracks, and legendary trails like Cliffhanger which we’ll access as a group. Most rides are 2–4 hours, with varied terrain, some climbs, and plenty of fun descents. We’ll guide and support you the whole way.
We are a leading firm in providing quality and value to our customers. Each member of our team has at least 5 years of legal experience.
Yes! From wine and olive oil tastings to yoga, spa sessions, and guided workshops with Hans, there’s plenty to enjoy off the bike. Non-riding guests will have a full program of their own, too.
Good vibes, a big appetite, and your swimming shorts!
If you forget your bike, we’ll help you sort one. But here’s what you should pack:
– Your favorite riding gear (it’s summer, think light & breezy)
– Sunscreen, sunglasses, and maybe your signature socks
– Something nice for wine tastings & slow dinners
– A book, a journal, or whatever helps you slow down off the bike
We’ll send you a full list once you’re in but honestly, if you bring energy and openness, you’re 90% packed already.
