1,000km. 7 days. One coast-to-coast ride across the Pyrenees. Follow the journey live on Instagram.
It’s the MotoGP summer break, and 2024 World Champion Jorge Martín is swapping horsepower for pedal power.
From 20–26 July, Jorge will take on the TransPyrenees Challenge, riding from Roses to San Sebastián in seven consecutive stages.
This is no casual summer spin. Across the week, Jorge will cover around 1,000km, climb more than 20,000m, and average roughly 140km per day through some of the most demanding and iconic cycling terrain in Europe — and we’ll be there following every kilometre.
From Roses to San Sebastián
Starting on the Mediterranean coast in Roses, Jorge will head west through the Pyrenees, taking on seven back-to-back days of riding before reaching San Sebastián on the Atlantic coast.
The route is designed to test everything: body, bike and mindset. This isn’t a race. It’s a coast-to-coast experience across the Pyrenees — long climbs, hard days, huge views and the kind of effort that creates a story worth telling.
The full route is split into seven stages:

Seven Days. No Easy Stages.
The opening stage takes Jorge from Roses to Ripoll, moving inland from the coast before the mountains start to bite.
From there, the route ramps up quickly. Stage 2 from Ripoll to Andorra is one of the early tests, with over 3,200m of climbing packed into 130km. Then comes Andorra to Salardú, another huge mountain day through high-altitude terrain.
By the middle of the week, fatigue will be setting in — but the route doesn’t let up. Salardú to Gripp brings repeated climbs, while Gripp to Bedous delivers one of the biggest climbing totals of the entire challenge at 3,346m.
Stage 6 may be the shortest on paper at just over 91km, but with 2,648m of elevation, Bedous to Larrau is still a serious mountain stage.
Then comes the final day: Larrau to San Sebastián. At 165km, it’s the longest stage of the challenge, with another 3,342m of climbing before Jorge reaches the coast.
Seven stages. Over 20,000m of elevation. No hiding.
