JOURNEY 01.3: MANU & JAVI, DE GRUPETA A LA SIERRA

Two friends in Madrid, and a road that took them from the city's springtime to the quietest corners of winter. Manu and Javi didn’t just found Dog Days and La Grupeta, they wove together a place where cycling goes far beyond bikes. In every conversation, in every coffee shared after a ride, there’s what truly matters: human connection.

With their feet on the pedals and their minds always open, they created more than just a bike shop and a café to pause. Dog Days and La Grupeta is a place where rides begin and end, but where the most special moments happen in between: in spontaneous conversations, in the shared silence of a climb, in the plans born over cups of warm coffee and knowing looks.

What started as a spring ride from La Grupeta turned into a journey toward what really matters. Because sometimes, without even meaning to, the road takes you exactly where you’re meant to be, into stillness, into memory, into community.
