On Sunday, October 18th, Sant Martí Sesgueioles will host the 13th edition of the Gerard Borràs Memorial Ride and Walk, a well-established sports and remembrance event in the municipality.

The event, organized by the Sant Martí Sesgueioles Town Council with support from the Barcelona Provincial Council, will offer various options to suit all participants. Routes include a Long Ride of 35 km, a 10 km Walk, a Short Ride of 15 km, and a 6 km Walk.
Departures will begin at 8:00 AM from Plaça Emili Donadeu. The walking activities will be accompanied by a guide, and the finish area and services will be located near the Municipal Pools.
Registrations are now open and can be made in person at the Town Hall or online via a form until October 11th. Payment must be made by October 15th. Fees vary depending on included services, ranging from €6 (runner's bag + breakfast or t-shirt only) to €10 (t-shirt + bag + breakfast). Children under 12 have a reduced fee of €6.
Number collection will be available at the Town Hall on Saturday, October 17th (from 7 PM to 9 PM) or on Sunday, October 18th, before each departure. The organization recommends early collection to streamline the event day.
Participants are reminded to wear helmets for the rides, bring their own water bottles, and exercise caution on the roads, as they will not be closed. For those without bicycles, a rental service is available through La Bacicleta.

This day is a tribute, a meeting point, and an opportunity to enjoy the surroundings and companionship.

The Sant Martí Sesgueioles Town Council encourages residents and visitors to participate in this special day.
