The original idea/plan for Easter this year was to ride a TransPirinaica.  A track from East to West (or the other way around) through the Pyrenees.  Mostly on the Spanish side.

Heavy snowfall decided we should do something else...

After talking some options between the Nufenens and me, the option of doing a Trans Cataluña came up.

Javi found a track on WikiLoc, wich stated a Trans Cataluña, mainly by following the 42° lattitude from the Mediteranian inwards to the border with Aragon.

Playing started and ended in Roses, the first big touristic beach/holiday village in Spain.  A place I have visited for like 20 times now.

A few kms after we started the track we noticed that it was not going to be easy.  Difficult terrain, tracks that where gone, new tracks that didn't show on the GPS; all was there for a perfect adventure!

After 4 days we didn't even get close to the end point but had 4 days of extreme fun!
