Cambrils has long been an ideal destination for cycling enthusiasts. Not only the Costa Daurada, but especially this municipality, has gained a good reputation among tourists who travel by bike to explore the area or prepare for their training sessions. The road connecting Cambrils with Montbri\u00f3 has become a frequent destination for cyclists, both individually and in groups, often accompanied by a car. This reflects the area’s friendliness toward cycling enthusiasts. <\/p>\n

From the Penya Ciclista Cambrils, they highlight how ideal the area is for cyclists: “Cambrils and its surroundings are perfect for enjoying cycling, both mountain biking, in short distances, and road cycling. In 20 kilometers we have mountains without losing sight of the sea. From Montbri\u00f3, traffic is reduced and we have access to areas like Falset and Priorat, ideal for riding and exploring. We also have other mountainous areas like Mussara or Prades, and, if you prefer, you can head south to ride kilometers on the flat,” says Juan.<\/p>\n

The origins and cycling history of Cambrils<\/strong><\/p>\n

The first steps of cycling in Cambrils are linked to the club founded in Vinyols i els Arcs more than 40 years ago, Amics del Ciclisme de Vinyols<\/em> . This club was the beacon of cycling activity in the area. Jordi Marin\u00e9<\/a> , one of the most prominent cyclists, was born in this municipality and was an Olympian in Tokyo 1964. He also participated in the Tour de France and was president of the Catalan Cycling Federation<\/em> . In Cambrils, Marin\u00e9 also founded the Penya Cicloturista de Cambrils<\/em> and his business, Bicicletes Marin\u00e9<\/em> , continues to serve both locals and tourists. <\/p>\n

Businesses related to cycle tourism in Cambrils<\/strong><\/p>\n

The cycling boom in Cambrils has led to the emergence of several businesses that complement the accommodation services.<\/p>\n

In the center of the town, Rodabike<\/em> is another example of a cycling business. It offers a space where you can enjoy a caf\u00e9, as well as a workshop and bicycle sales. Rodabike<\/em> ‘s director, Laura Moreno, highlights the growth of cycling culture in Cambrils: “Due to its location, size, and services, we are the cycling hub of the Costa Daurada. We have everything close by: roads in perfect condition, low traffic, and a privileged environment,” she states. Furthermore, Rodabike<\/em> offers bicycle rentals for exploring areas like Priorat, or even organizes group rides with included transfers. <\/p>\n

Cambrils in major cycling competitions<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cambrils has never hosted a finish in the Vuelta a Espa\u00f1a, but it has witnessed several editions of the Volta a Catalunya. The first time the race came to Cambrils was in 1944 with a time trial won by Miguel Casas. The Volta would visit the town on five other occasions, the last in 2006, with victory for Luis P\u00e9rez. Cambrils also hosted a time trial in 1982, won by cyclist Alberto Fern\u00e1ndez, a beloved name at the time. <\/p>\n
