Experience Andalucia like never before with the Andalucia Bike Race 2012.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For those who have been to Andalucia in the months of February and March, the region is usally blessed with some fantastic weather. Unlike in the summer months when the temperatures are usually in the 30s and often 40s, late winter and early spring can be the perfect time to get active in Andalucia\u2019s great outdoors.<\/p>\n

It is at this time of year that the Andalucia Bike Race is held; enabling riders and spectators alike to enjoy the great weather amidst some of the most stunning scenery Spain has to offer.<\/p>\n

From February 26 \u2013 March 2, the Andalucia Bike Race 2012 will take place in the provinces of Jaen and Cordoba. This six-day race is split into different stages and categories. There is an elite men\u2019s race, an elite women\u2019s race, and a mixed and masters race, in which each competitor has to be aged thirty or over.<\/p>\n

The race consist of a short urban prologue that will be held on the streets of the magnificent and historical city of Cordoba, a mountain bike stage, which will take place in the Mediterranean forests of the Sierra Morena, a mountain stage that will take riders up into the Sierra Nevada, inland Spain\u2019s highest mountain range that is capped by snow for most parts of the year, and the final stage where riders will find themselves riding through the beautiful and diverse province of Jaen, notorious for its endless meadows of olive trees.<\/p>\n

The first edition of the Andalucia Bike Race saw riders from 15 different countries participate, including the former cross country world champion, Jose Antonio Hermida. Although the second edition, the organisers promise, will be better than ever, saying that \u201cwe are discovering a new Andalucia, which we didn\u2019t expect.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you\u2019d like to discover Andalucia like you\u2019ve never discovered it before, make sure you are in the city of Cordoba next February 26 for the\u00a0Andalucia Bike Race 2012.<\/p>\n
