The ride
The shortest route on the list, and the one with no agenda. Out of Girona to the south, through Cassà de la Selva and the small roads around Sant Andreu Salou, and back: forty-two kilometres of cork-oak country that never asks anything of you.
Look at the profile: three hundred metres of climbing spread over the whole loop and nothing steeper than three per cent. That makes it the obvious choice for a first day in Girona, a recovery spin, or the morning after something long.
Coffee stop
Nothing on the road itself on this one. The Girona stops below are the ones that work: before you leave, or when you get back.
Before and after, in Girona
This one starts and finishes in the city, so the Girona cafés work either end: a coffee while the group gathers, or brunch when you get back.
