Andorra MoraBanc Clàssica Launches New Event Letting Fans ‘Race’ Against the Pros

Posted on: 05/12/2026

The Andorra MoraBanc Clàssica is expanding its offerings with an exciting new public event: “La Crono de La Clàssica x Toteemi,” a mountain time trial that lets cycling enthusiasts experience the thrill of the race firsthand and compare their times against elite riders on the same course.

Scheduled for Sunday, June 21, 2026, the event challenges participants to conquer the final 10 official kilometers of the Clàssica, from Erts to the Coll de la Botella, deep in the Pyrenees. With a 10 km route featuring over 700 meters of positive elevation gain, the climb is a demanding yet rewarding test, with average gradients between 5% and 8% and ramps hitting 12%, all set against a stunning natural backdrop.

**An Experience That Feels Like a Professional’s**

“La Crono de La Clàssica x Toteemi” is designed to make every participant feel part of the race. Riders start individually in a time-trial format, with chip timing activated along the course. The finish line is the same arch used by the professionals, and each finisher receives an official arrival photograph. Cyclists can choose their start time within a designated window, completing the route at their own pace while soaking in the high-level competition atmosphere.

**A Historic Challenge**

The challenge isn’t just about finishing—it’s about measuring up against the best. The benchmark time is set by the 2025 Clàssica winner, Mattias Skjelmose (Lidl-Trek), who completed the course in 26 minutes and 38 seconds. Participants can try to beat or simply enjoy the chase against his record.

**Limited Spots and Premium Services**

To ensure a quality experience, only 200 cyclists can register. The entry fee of 15 euros includes a race number and timing chip, a welcome pack, a bag drop service (deposit at start, pickup at finish), refreshments and food at the finish line, and free downloadable photos. Awards will be given for the fastest times, along with special recognitions, including the official Andorra MoraBanc Clàssica jersey.

**Bringing Cycling Closer to Fans**

Developed in partnership with Toteemi, this new initiative reinforces the Clàssica’s mission to bring high-level cycling to the public, offering an interactive experience within a real competitive setting. The time trial adds an innovative format to the event, blending sports tourism, personal challenge, and live spectacle.

Registration is open until June 15, 2026, through the official website: https://andorramorabancclassica.ad/.
