These schedules will be posted on the web in the “Itinerary and Controls” section one week before the Crom Ride. If you arrive earlier, you will have to wait for them to open, and if you arrive later, you will lose the opportunity to seal. Opening and closing times must be respected if you want to guarantee the stamp on your Passport.

It is mandatory to go through all the Checkpoints to stamp the Passport. If you do not have a Checkpoint stamp on your card, you will not be able to prove that you have completed the itinerary and it will also cause you to lose the right to a finisher’s gift.

We will publish the locations before closing registrations, you will also find them marked on the tracks and in the Roadbook. They will be located in a visible and easily recognizable place because they will be perfectly identified.

Loss of your Crom Ride Passport will result in the withdrawal of the event, and as a result, you will not be able to obtain your finisher’s gift as you will not be able to prove that you have completed the course.

All details regarding the Crom Ride will be publiched, once registrations are closed, on the web and on social media.

Driving time is limited by the opening and closing times of each of the Checkpoints. For these times, an average speed has been calculated within the legal limits. There will be no Checkpoints open before opening time and after closing time, so if you arrive at a Checkpoint outside of the established hours, you will lose the opportunity to seal them. The Checkpoints will be open for an additional hour on the estimated time for the arrival of the last participant who has left Girona.

The estimated time to complete the entire route is 10 hours, including stops to fill the tank, lunch, etc. It also gives you time to make some coffee and take pictures. But yes, you can’t fall asleep…

The route will be approximately >500 km long. You will find the distance of this year’s route when the route is published.

In case of abandonment or major cause, send a WhatsApp to the numbers of the organization to let us know that you are leaving the route, or call for help if necessary. You will find the telephone numbers printed on the Passport. If you do not complete the test, even if you decide not to go through any of the Checkpoints, you can always cut and continue enjoying the route we have prepared. This route is for you to enjoy, if you are tired or unwell, you should not continue.

Each scheduled departure time will be posted on the web one week before the Crom Ride. In case of people arriving late at the departure, outside their scheduled time, they will line up and start in the first available slot.

We recommend that you arrive at the Fontajau car park at least 30 minutes before your departure within the allotted time slot, so that you can have breakfast and be ready and equipped to seal your  Crom Ride Passport before taking the start. There will be staff from the organization who will tell you when to start and who you can also contact if you have any questions.

Respect the allotted time slot for your departure as accurately as possible. If you arrive late, you will have to wait for another available time slot after the other participants have left.

Start and arrival will be from the Girona-Fontajau Pavilion. It is central and very easily accessible.
