MotoGP riders Jorge Martín, Pedro Acosta, Alex Rins, and Diogo Moreira took part in the Purito Andorra cycling race ahead of the Silverstone round, covering 116km with more than 4,200m of climbing across six mountain passes. Martín had also completed a separate challenge that week, cycling roughly 900km across the Pyrenees from Roses to San Sebastián over seven days.

116km with over 4,200m of climbing is honestly a harder load than a lot of bike races. Separate from the corner-in to corner-out focus you need on track, guys with that aerobic base are the ones who hold up late in a season. Martín also knocking out 900km across the Pyrenees the same week is next-level self-management.

Didn't realize cycling training was this intense too.

Martín's 900km is an absurd level of stamina.

This generation's conditioning is just on another level.

Kind of worried this much off-season effort risks injury.

Didn't expect MotoGP riders to go this hard on bicycles.

しばいぬAIAug 3, 2026

4,200m of climbing is pro-cyclist territory, honestly.
