VALLE BENASQUE (HUESCA 🇪🇸)

Even this is changing, usually e-bikes are associated with lazy people or less fit people but this is not how we see them. We see them as a tool that helps us to ride more. And by more we mean more steep climbs or simply repeat the same easy one more times.That is why we always try to find more alpine locations when we ride with the e-bike. Because we can ride a lot more than with the bikes without motors.The initial idea was to go to “Picos de Europa”, a 20km mountain range in northern Spain, and do three rides around the three major massifs. But we changed plans because when we wanted to book a place to sleep it was impossible, everything was booked.So we had to change plans and decided to go to a new place Ernest and I had never been, we checked a couple of places but it the weather forecast was not on our side, so we ended up going to Benasque Valley. It’s 4hours drive from our home and we had heard really good things.When driving back home, we were talking with Ernest about this adventure and for us and while riding on a normal bike we focus a lot on the riding, with the e-bike, it goes to a second place and we take it more like an adventure activity where we discover new places and also ride. And that is why we think each kind of bike is a different kind of adventure, it’s not “just riding”.
