About

The 2026 edition of Gravel Tres Cantos by Specialized has been cancelled, with full refunds issued to registered participants. The event was held in Tres Cantos, north of Madrid, and offered two distances: a 130-kilometre long route with 2,300 metres of climbing and a 55-kilometre short option. The terrain in this part of the Madrid region transitions from pine forest tracks to more technical foothills approaching the Sierra de Guadarrama, giving the race a genuine XC character that demands both climbing capacity and confident bike handling on the descents. Check the organizer's official channels or Specialized's communications for updates on a possible 2027 edition.
