The ride
This is the ride people come to Girona for and then tell their friends about. South through the Selva, out to the coast at Lloret, and then the road that runs along the cliffs to Sant Feliu de Guíxols — the one that photographs better than anything else in the province.
The sting is in the tail. After a hundred kilometres you still have the Gavarres between you and home. Take food, and take more than you think you need.

Featured segment: Tossa to Sant Feliu
Not a climb, but the best stretch of road on the ride: the coast road between Tossa and Sant Feliu, hairpin after hairpin with the sea below.
