ULTRACYCLIST 2022 EP 5 - BASAJAUN 2022 (Spain)

Join me as I embark on an unforgettable journey through the rugged terrain, steep climbs, and breathtaking views of the renowned Basajaun ultradistance gravel race.
Nestled in the heart of the Basque Country, the Basajaun race draws its name from a mythical creature in Basque mythology, embodying the untamed spirit of this extraordinary event. Along with over 200 fearless riders, I took on the challenge to conquer the 700+ km distance, braving unpredictable weather, grueling inclines, and relentless trails.
From seasoned professionals to eager enthusiasts like myself, the Basajaun race brings together the ultracycling community and ignites within us the determination to push our limits.

Damn! This is such a helpful video. I'm doing this year's edition of Basajaun and I'm only getting more excited after watching. I'm curious, what's the weather like throughout the course on both Day and night? From your account, it seems the desert is going to be brutal to tackle.

Hey ! Thanks for taking your time to watch the video! I'm glad you enjoyed! During the day it's HOT! It can get up to 40.c! At night temperatures drop and I suggest you take a warm jacket if you ride thru the night. Leg warmers help too!! The Desert will be extremely hot and with almost no shelter (beware!). When I went past the desert, there was someone being picked up by a Heli as they had bad sun stroke. Good Luck!
