Motauros Wraps Up in Tordesillas With 15,322 Riders Despite Winter Storms

A new access cap for the torch procession marked a shift toward tighter crowd management.

Overview

  • The 26th edition concluded Sunday after a weekend of persistent rain and episodes of snow that organizers still described as a success.
  • The torchlight tribute illuminated the Duero bridge with 600 flares in memory of deceased motorcyclists.
  • For the first time, entry to the torch parade was limited as a preventive measure, according to the organizers.
  • The program kept its staples, from the Medina del Campo ride and public stunt shows to live sets including Despistaos.
  • Honors highlighted padrino Champi Herreros and recognitions such as young rider Hugo Sousa, while Red Cross teams reported 11 minor assists.
