Two brothers. Fourteen days. One continuous crossing.
A bikepacking and hiking journey from the Pyrenees to the Atlantic coast, crossing northern Spain through mountains, gravel roads, historic cities, and remote valleys. From legendary Tour de France climbs to the wild Picos de Europa, this is a journey across some of the most diverse landscapes in Europe.
No rush. Just movement, weather, effort, and silence on the road.
Presented by Siroko.
► ABOUT THIS ADVENTURE
In May 2026, we set out on a continuous crossing from the Pyrenees to the Atlantic Ocean. What followed was a route shaped by high mountain passes, gravel tracks, changing weather, and long days on the bike. A journey through the Basque Country, into the Picos de Europa, and across some of the most iconic landscapes of northern Spain.
This film is a raw reflection of that experience, and of everything that happens when a plan meets reality on the road.
I hope it makes you want to get out there.
📍 A detailed route guide for this expedition will be available soon, including GPX files, stages, key info, and personal recommendations.

Would you mind sharing the full specifications of both bikes, including the frame, groupset, wheels, and tires? Also, could you tell me the model of the aero/TT bars and your entire bikepacking setup (frame bag, handlebar bag, saddle bag, etc.)?
I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!
