Up to this point, the route is practically flat. ☀️ From this point the environment becomes more open and with less shade. ⛰️ From Perales del Río, we head towards La Marañosa, which is the section that gives the route its sporty character. It's a short, steady climb of about 100 meters in elevation gain, without any steep ramps, and with two ascents of approximately 4 km each. In both cases it is a gradual ascent that allows you to climb at a controlled pace, without sudden changes in intensity. 👥 Each participant will ascend at their own pace, with regrouping taking place at the top. 🏘️ Afterwards, we'll descend towards San Martín de la Vega, a town closely linked to cycling in southern Madrid and a common meeting point for many cyclists in the area. There, we'll stop for a rest before returning to Madrid. 🚴♀️ Group dynamics 👥 A responsible group dynamic is prioritized, adapting the pace so that all participants can enjoy the route. 🚴♂️ Road cyclists will be able to head directly to the regrouping point in San Martín de la Vega, thus facilitating the flow of different paces. ⚠️ The participant who sets the slowest pace in the group should not be left alone. It is recommended that a member bring up the rear, accompanying them when necessary. 🚴♂️ It is recommended to ride in pairs or small groups and regroup at agreed points. 📍 Gathering points : • 🌉 End of the river walk / turnoff towards Perales del Río • ⛰️ Alto de La Marañosa • 🏘️ San Martín de la Vega (main meeting point) 🔁 Route options : 🔁 Short option: finish in Perales del Río. 🔁 Intermediate option: climb to La Marañosa and direct return to Madrid 🔁 Full route: to San Martín de la Vega and back. ⚠️ Responsibility and safety ❗ Each participant is responsible for their own safety, respecting traffic rules and assessing whether the route is suitable for their physical and technical abilities. ℹ️ The organizer is not a professional guide, therefore he/she does not assume responsibility for accidents, injuries or any other unforeseen events or incidents that may occur during the route 🗺️ It is recommended to have the guide track downloaded on your device. https://loc.wiki/t/91003677?h=gp2yjwe2zv&wa=sd&la=es (country house-san martin de la vega)
