The competition, which will start at 11:00 a.m. from the Miguel Ríos auditorium fairgrounds, is a sports endurance test with mountain bike in which you can participate individually or in teams, in the relay mode, indicates the Consistory in a note.
The cyclists must arrive in Murcia on Sunday, September 17, after completing the 664 kilometers divided into eight stages, with a maximum time of 45 hours.
