This ride is a showcase of the Algarve’s central charm, a mix of lively spots, quiet roads, and open views. Take it steady early on through Guia and Algoz, where traffic can be a bit thick. Once you're past Algores, the road calms down and gives you a flat 20K to stretch the legs and roll easy. The middle of the ride leads you through traditional farmland, wide and peaceful, before turning south. As you near the end, the coast returns and the route finishes with sea breezes and a smooth cruise back into town.
