Headed to Girona, Spain for April vacation and plan to do a ride or two, anyone have a recommendation on a 50ish mile loop, or a good shop to rent bikes from?

Also hitting up the priorat wine region (some of my favorites) and have learned that tastings can be hard to come by, any chance you all have been and know a vineyard or two that we should check out?

Thanks in advance!

I had good luck with Bike Breaks. Very nice folks and they will recommend rides, provide maps, etc..
They had nice Cannondales a couple years ago when I was there.
Stay at the Hotel Historic if you haven’t picked out a place yet.

Go to The Service Course, they will load rides onto your Garmin. Good rentals too.

The Service Course hands down. An incredible election of top end bikes for reasonable prices. I rented a really nice Belle stellar disc bike when I was there that was dreamy to ride. They also have computers with preloaded maps and shower/locker facilities for afterwards.

If you don’t get espresso from Espresso Mafia or breakfast at La Fabrica you’ve missed out!

It should be mentioned that Barcelona is a fairly short train ride for non riding days.
