Nearly 120 participants in eighth Formentera Volta Cicloturista mountain bike race

foto 2023iv volta cicloToday the Office of Sports of the Consell de Formentera and Espalmador Sport Grup (Grup Esportiu Espalmador, GEE) presented the eighth Formentera Volta Cicloturista, a mountain bike race that will see participants cycling round the island on Saturday and Sunday. In total, there are two stages of approximately 72 km each that travel the circumference of the island. The second stage will be the same route as the first day, but in the opposite direction. For both stages, contestants will set out from Sant Francesc at 9.00am and arrive where they departed.

As Paula Ferrer, sports councillor, put it, "the Volta Cicloturista for mountain bikers is a very attractive event for fans of this sport in the islands and also offers the chance to visit the island at an ideal time before the tourist season".

Currently about 120 participants have signed up and registration is open until tomorrow Friday at 8.00pm on www.elitechip.net.

The race will have two refreshment points, one in Sant Francesc and the other at the lighthouse of La Mola, approximately halfway along the route.
