Every day the team set out for an average ride of about 120-150 kilometres with about 2500 altitude metres, which takes about 6 to 7 hours to complete. Besides the sweat that gets into all the training efforts, there’s always the rewards afterwards at the Meloneras beach boulevard where some cold drinks are collected to quench the thirst after long sunny days 😉
