The Directorate General for Emergencies and the Interior and 112 recommend that all participants respect the instructions given by the organisation and the security forces.

Advice during the march:

All participants, when travelling on the road or the hard shoulder, must carry an approved light or retroreflector.
Groups must also carry the necessary lights to indicate their position and size.
One or two hours before the ride, it is advisable to lightly massage the feet with a moisturising cream or Vaseline. A few minutes before setting off, stretch your legs.
It is important to wear sports shoes with flexible and thick soles and to carry a fanny pack or small rucksack (well attached to the waist or shoulder, avoiding uncomfortable movements when walking).
Because of the AEMET forecast of possible rain from 5 a.m. onwards, it is advisable to carry an umbrella and a mackintosh.
