San Foca up and down the coast

Great flexibility to be able to choose a great gravelbike and pick it up directly in San Foca, with the possibility to park the car. And then the customisation possibilities with pedals, Garmin mount. Flexible return. Overall a very enjoyable experience that I can wholeheartedly…
