This years edition of the Gran Fondo Alberto Contador will take place on Saturday, 21/9/2024. The event gives you the chance to ride with one of the greatest cyclists off all time (well thats my view!) A rider who rode Gran Tours on feeling not by numbers and lit up races and took on all comers single handed. The double Tour de France champion will lead the way for this Gran Fondo.
This circular circuit starts in the stunning location of Oliva, which is in the province of Valencia,. The route cuts across several municipalities in the province of Alicante before looping back to the start point. A key feature is that roads are closed to regular traffic to ensure the well-being , safety and comfort of all riders. It gives you the chance to ride without any traffic worries, still giving you time to enjoy the scenery with peace of mind. The Gran Fondo Alberto Contador is a single distance that being 146km with an elevation gain of 2,538 metres. So clear your diary for September and enjoy!
