On May 30, 2021, the first Spanish ATB e-bike championship was held in Villanueva del Pardillo, Madrid, making it the first competition of its kind seen in Spain, featuring participants in the female and male categories and promotions for non-federated cyclists.
It proved to be a unique event where electric bikes had to pass a thorough technical verification process and in which the organisation limited participation to feature only models that conformed to technical regulations laid out by the Royal Spanish Cycling Federation. In addition, the e-bikes had to compete in boost or turbo mode on the understanding that running out of battery could mean losing the race
