December 9, 2022,Guayadec oder "wenn die Sackgasse den Sack zu macht"
The cul-de-sac up to Guayadec is simply "a dog": Starts leisurely and gets steeper and steeper with every kilometer. Still nice. A very own subclimate on Gran Canaria.

Wow, the last ride already! These four weeks have flown by. Originally, I wanted to do 110km as my last ride with 2,200m of altitude gain, but the 3-4 days of sandstorms threw a wrench in the works halfway through. But that's okay. I cycled my planned 500km and achieved my desired 10,000m of elevation gain. So the penultimate ride …

One valley more beautiful than the other!
One climb steeper than the next!
One serpentine is more beautiful than the next!
One caffe con leche is tastier than the next!


Simply a great route that I can really recommend!

Once again my greatest respect 👍 to all cyclists 🚴 ♂️ who met and spoke today! You mastered the climbs without …

25km of extreme headwind on the coast. Then a lot of traffic until Agūimes - finally some peace and quiet in the mountains🥴 - but halfway through the tour the wind changes direction. Dang... it's exhausting without end... when was my average speed under 20km/h???

Still a nice tour somehow😂🤭

First it's a good 25km uphill but you'll be rewarded with great views and awesome and very fast descents!😊😎

Pretty tour with some surprises. Exactly at the begin of one of the most beautiful descents in Gran Canaria the road was closed! So what I could do? I decided to go over Agüimes to the coastroad back home. What were the consequences?
1. More kilometers
2. more climb-meters
3. poor tarmac
4. Changing weather with thick clouds and a …
My standard round. Brilliant climbing route. Mega quiet regarding traffic. Smooth asphalt everywhere and fully paved. A few nice small cozy places where you can eat and drink something. Especially the way back, the Gc 65, is insane. Like a roller coaster. Through the Grand Canyon of Gran Canaria. It was top again🤪✅

Since the wind turned today, headwinds uphill again :-)
