The Traka. This photo is from 2019, a three wooden frame and a little panel that said traka (still conserved on the venue in case you wonder) we started the journey of what’s going to become the biggest event in European gravel. Nobody at that time knew that it was going to happen like it did, it was going to become so big, it was going to be a thing. Together with Unbound they are currently the biggest events by far in Gravel.
For those who don’t know Klassmark is an organizer who has trail running, used to have MTB events and now gravel events across Spain and the new introduction this year, by Traka across other countries. I’ve known Cristina and Gerard for a long time, and I tell you they work hard for this.

« Si je presse ça, c’est fini, terminé. » ⛰️

Sami Sauri nous raconte ce moment d’immense frayeur. À 3 heures du matin, en pleine montagne au Kyrgyzstan, elle se retrouve coincée jusqu’à la hanche dans un marécage, seule au milieu de nulle part.

C'est ce point précis où la fatigue extrême rencontre la panique. Actionner le bouton SOS ou trouver une solution ? Utiliser son vélo comme une plateforme pour ramper vers une zone stable, c’est là que l'instinct de survie est à son maximum.

Cela fait réfléchir à nos propres limites. Souvent, quand on pense avoir tout essayé, il reste encore une petite étincelle pour transformer un désastre en une leçon de résilience.

Today felt like an ultra by car - a show is a show and it kept delivering, just like on a theater but without falling asleep. Gravel has still a lot to learn, I guess that’s the resume of the weekend.

« If you go further, you will see more. » C’est le mantra qui a nourri Sami Sauri pour dompter la Silk Road Mountain Race. 🌍

Une phrase qui résume parfaitement son état d’esprit. Curieuse, engagée, profondément tournée vers l’aventure, Sami n’a jamais cessé d’explorer, sur le vélo comme en dehors.

Du fixie à Barcelone aux premières courses de gravel, à une époque où la discipline était encore confidentielle, elle trace progressivement sa route jusqu’à l’ultra-distance, où elle franchit un cap en terminant 2e de la Silk Road Mountain Race en 2025.

Mais Sami, ce n’est pas que le vélo. C’est aussi une vision, une créativité et un engagement fort pour faire évoluer la place des femmes dans l’outdoor.

Dans cet épisode de Jusqu’au Sommet aux accents catalans, on explore avec elle :
- une immersion profonde dans sa 2ème place sur la Silk Road Mountain Race
- ses conseils pour préparer et terminer son premier ultra
- son regard sur l’évolution du monde du gravel
- ses actions pour rendre l’ultra-cyclisme plus accessible aux femmes

Sara goes Ultra Ep. 3

In this episode, it’s not just about preparing your body for an ultra — it’s about getting your bike ready, too.

As it turns out, @cafedebedstee isn’t exactly the most diligent when it comes to keeping her drivetrain clean and dialed… so @samisauri had a few important things to point out.

„Okay confession time: I’ve basically never properly cleaned or fixed anything on my bike. Tell me I’m not the only one…..?! There must be more cycling queening slayerssss out there who just love riding and don’t really care about all the technical stuff. And honestly… that’s fine……Until it isn’t …
Apparently a clean chain = more watts? That’s what Sami told me hehe

Also, in Morocco I oiled my chain with olive oil, that isn’t really smart I can tell you…
I was going insane from the noise, some guys from a bar were like “we can help you”, and I just trusted them. The result was: a quiet chain for 5 minutes, then everything turned into one big sticky mess and it still is. Maybe it’s time I start taking care of my bike… or at least stop feeding it kitchen ingredients.“

Up next: things get practical. In the next episode, it’s all about maintenance and the spare parts you really don’t want to forget.

Traka aka episode 1 of Why I choose this! Get those set ups ready a week to go!

- @daysaver.fun multitool and pump
- @exposure.lights front and rear light
- @pocsports new admidal helmet
- @tailfincycling top tube bags and speed pack

Thanks for watching 🫶🏼

Sara goes Ultra Ep. 1

Our dear @cafedebedstee is going to face a huge challenge, taking on @thetraka 560 as her first ultra race in a few days. To get some last minute advice and learn everything she needs to know about ultra events, she teamed up with endurance enthusiast @samisauri

In the first epsiode, it’s all about weight: „I felt even a little bit embarrassed when Sami laughed at me about all the stuff I brought! Haha, it’s also funny because the thing I always recommend to people is to bring as less as possible… and somehow I always bring to much random extra things?
It’s the same when I leave the house my bag is always full with random stuff instead the most important but jaaaa :p

Luckily Sami helped me out and this is what she recommends to bring:
1 down jacket
1 emergency sleeping bag
1 pair of leg warmers
1 extra cycling bib
a small rain jacket
earphones
powerbank

I’m so impressed with how less it is haha, sooooo I feel like I’m gonna fly 🫡🫡“

In the following episodes Sami is going to teach Sara some uncommon knowledge and common mistakes. Stay tuned.

We share the success all the time but not many times the failure, and this time I sett off for failure but at least i tried.
A new challenge that didn’t went to plan basically, I have a hard time putting words into this and even maybe I’ve thought about if I should to put it out or not, for some shame or for some I don’t know exactly how to express it but like people just look at you when you do good things and nearly doesn’t feel right when you do wrong things. I set myself into quite a hard 2 days, this time not on the bike but on skis. The famous Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt, around 100km and 8000m elevation and I wanted to complete it in 2 days.
I haven’t had the winter on skis I expected maybe to have, but instead I did a lot of endurance long days on the bike. I was naïf enough to think that could help but as a friend told me today, from skis to bike works amazing but from bike to skis is probably not the same.
We started early but not enough, we had some set backs already on the first part, a broken binding and a ski a bit loose. My pace was not fast, my anxiety on this timed situation was high, I was mentally just thinking how bad I’m dealing with things and how slow I’m going. I was set for an adventure no matter what, I did meditate into this but the mountains are the mountains and they teach you when to stop.
So after a long and slow ski we stoped half way through where we really wanted to stop. La Foully, with its lovely supermarket that always saves me (it did on the tour du Mont Blanc gravel a few years back) and luckily we found a couple guys going back to Chamonix. So at the end of the day it was a win win because we learned, we did enjoyed and we spend time on this beautiful places called backyard mountains 🫶🏼

Thanks for the patience @adri.est , and so stoked to get to try some of the @millet_mountain product like their piramenta pant and the trilogy mega lightway jacket, because hey, this things are aloooot about weight and also @iaininnes let me some very light poles too! So thanks all :) I’ll be back next year better and faster 💪🏼

A new challenge that didn’t went to plan basically, I have a hard time putting words into this and even maybe I’ve thought about if I should to put it out or not, for some shame or for some I don’t know exactly how to express it but like people just look at you when you do good things and nearly doesn’t feel right when you do wrong things. I set myself into quite a hard 2 days, this time not on the bike but on skis. The famous Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt, around 100km and 8000m elevation and I wanted to complete it in 2 days.
I haven’t had the winter on skis I expected maybe to have, but instead I did a lot of endurance long days on the bike. I was naïf enough to think that could help but as a friend told me today, from skis to bike works amazing but from bike to skis is probably not the same.
We started early but not enough, we had some set backs already on the first part, a broken binding and a ski a bit loose. My pace was not fast, my anxiety on this timed situation was high, I was mentally just thinking how bad I’m dealing with things and how slow I’m going. I was set for an adventure no matter what, I did meditate into this but the mountains are the mountains and they teach you when to stop.
So after a long and slow ski we stoped half way through where we really wanted to stop. La Foully, with its lovely supermarket that always saves me (it did on the tour du Mont Blanc gravel a few years back) and luckily we found a couple guys going back to Chamonix. So at the end of the day it was a win win because we learned, we did enjoyed and we spend time on this beautiful places called backyard mountains 🫶🏼

Thanks for the patience @adri.est , and so stoked to get to try some of the @millet_mountain product like their piramenta pant and the trilogy mega lightway jacket, because hey, this things are aloooot about weight and also @iaininnes let me some very light poles too! So thanks all :) I’ll be back next year better and faster 💪🏼
