About
The Transpyr Gravel Adventure is a multi-stage bikepacking journey linking Roses on the Girona coast with Irun at the Basque border, crossing Aragon and Navarra along the southern flanks of the Pyrenees. Each stage delivers a distinct landscape, from Mediterranean coastline through pre-Pyrenean valleys to deep Navarrese mountain terrain. Total distances and elevation are published on the official website per edition. Managing cumulative fatigue across consecutive riding days is the core challenge Push Rider addresses for multi-stage events: daily effort periodisation, active nocturnal recovery and nutrition calibrated to each stage's real energy demand. Designed for experienced bikepackers comfortable with self-managed multi-day travel.

How to prepare for the Transpyr Gravel Adventure with PUSH TRAINING 360?
A multi-stage Ultra traverse crossing the Pyrenees from east to west demands preparation focused on accumulated effort over several days. The 12-week PUSH TRAINING 360 plan with weekly review includes 4 phases: aerobic base to develop long-duration endurance, threshold construction to sustain moderate power on mountain stages, specificity loading with consecutive riding days that simulate cumulative fatigue, and tapering before the start. The 3-phase nutrition approach is essential: maximising glycogen stores before the event, regular carbohydrate and fat intake during each stage, and protein-led overnight recovery between days. Pacing strategy for a multi-day ultra requires conservative intensity in the first days to preserve capacity for the second half.
