La Santa Vall opens the Gravel Earth Series calendar, and its position as the season's first race gives it outsized influence on early GES standings. Run over two days in the Girona region — already established as European road racing's unofficial winter training base — the event benefits from terrain and infrastructure that's been fine-tuned by decades of pro cycling presence in the area.
Registration opens on July 29 and is available on a first come, first served basis.
