The Natural Park of Montnegre i el Corredor and the emblematic Montseny have mysterious and spectacular areas for cycling. This is the starting point of M&M Gravel Grinder, a new event that will live its first edition during the weekend of May 13- 14, 2023.

To explore what all the participants in May will experience, we are meeting with Bernat Buch, to do the 120 kilometer route, the intermediate version of the three M&M Gravel Grinder events. “This distance includes a bit of everything”, Buch says. “You will see the Montseny Natural Park in depth and also the Pyrenees, on a clear day.”

He has called us at 6 AM in Santa Susanna, starting point of the event in May, where the participants can enjoy the exhibition area with some of the leading brands in the cycling sector and activities for all audiences, starting already the day before and lasting the days of the event. “We have the intention to combine family and leisure time at the same event.”

Apart from the 120 kilometer option, there are also two other options: the 85 kilometer is ideal for people who are starting out in the world of gravel and want to enjoy an exciting experience, and a 200 kilometer option for those who are eager to discover in depth what M&M Gravel Grinder can offer them.
