Transition

For the last couple of days I have been getting quite bad cramp in both hands while riding and a bit in my hamstrings while in bed. Now I have started to get cramp in my hands while eating. Much better today after eating enough. 😉

So yesterday evening, having checked in and had a shower, I was talking with the guesthouse manage about writing my blog and wanting to give him a plug in my blog. During this discussion I checked the name of the hotel and discovered it was not the one I had booked via Bookings.com. 🤨🤔. Seems they are quite close to each other and my GPS led me to this one. Too tired to move. 😏.

I woke slowly and felt tired so I had a late start. Great breakfast at the resturant next door where i struck up a conversation with a Japanese guy cycling Andalucia on a single speed 20inch fat wheel bike. I was impressed, we talked and drank coffee the forever habit of cyclists. He had done some serious trips The Baja divide stays in my mind as also one of my places I want to ride.

But time is pressing so I leapt on the bike and rode out. It’s a transition day between 2 mountain ranges (Sierra de Baza and Sierras de Cazorla) But also going from Granada to Jean. So I went to a campsite at the foothills of the Sierras de Cazorla. No one at the office. I put my tent up and am waiting. Interestingly I am running low on cash, Best there are some free camp spots on the way.

So many children turned up and kept me awake till well after midnight, grrrrr.
