Esta prova organizada pelo DAP, faz
parte de um conjunto de 4 eventos a realizar em 4 anos e conta com o apoio dos
municípios de Portalegre, Marvão, Castelo de Vide e Arronches.
Já tínhamos participado na edição
do ano passado que partiu de Portalegre e tínhamos decidido logo que participaríamos
nas restantes 3 edições.
O sítio escolhido para ficarmos
durante esta experiência, foram as “Casas do Contrabando”, na pacata localidade
de Galegos, onde fomos recebidos com muita simpatia e profissionalismo.
Simplesmente espetacular!!! Desde a decoração interior ao repousante som do
riacho que passa mesmo ao lado da propriedade, passando pela piscina onde
pudemos recuperar após a prova (ver vídeo aqui).

Apesar de alguns participantes
terem mostrado descontentamento em relação ao posicionamento do primeiro
abastecimento e onde surgiu um pequeno percalço com o fornecimento de águas, a
organização deste evento está uma vez mais de parabéns, estando ao nível de
outras organizações de topo no nosso país. Pena apenas a demora na entrega de
prémios após o almoço.
De regresso às Casas do
Contrabando, tempo para relaxar na piscina, e desfrutar do lanche surpresa que
nos esperava.
Para o ano voltaremos ao São
Mamede Granfondo e seguramente iremos regressar às Casas do Contrabando, com
mais tempo para poder aproveitar todo o potencial deste alojamento.

On the weekend of June 16 and 17 we went to Marvão to participate in São Mamede Granfondo - Marvão.
This event, organized by the DAP, is part of a series of 4 events to be held in 4 years with the support of the municipalities of Portalegre, Marvão, Castelo de Vide and Arronches.
We had already participated in last years edition that left Portalegre and we had decided soon that we would participate in the remaining 3 editions.
We left Setubal on Saturday morning and had lunch in the quiet town of Ribeira de Niza, about 20 minutes from Marvão. After lunch, time to get the participants kit and know a little of the village of Marvão, and then enjoy the excellent conditions that our accommodation had to offer.
The site we chose to stay during this experience was the "Casas do Contrabando", in the quiet locality of Galegos, where we were greeted with a lot of sympathy and professionalism.
Simply spectacular!!! From the interior decoration to the restful sound of the creek that passes right by the property, passing by the pool where we could recover after the event (see video here).
Despite the immense heat that was felt on Sunday, the event was finished without any problems by all who accompanied us in this experience, thus fulfilling our main objective. We also managed to bring two women's podiums with Nídia acheaving 3rd in the Women's General and 2nd in the Master A.
Although some participants were unssatisfied with the positioning of the first supply and where there was a small hitch with the supply of water, the organization of this event is once again at the level of other top organizations in our country. Congratulations!!! Just a reminder for delay in delivery of premiums after lunch.
Back to Casas do Contrabando, time to relax by the pool, and enjoy the surprise snack that awaited us.
For next year we will return to São Mamede Granfondo and we will surely return to the Houses of Contraband, with more time to be able to enjoy the full potential of this lodging.
