The morning sun in Valencia is so good. I immediately want to move here.

I got up had 3 coffees at 3 different coffee shops.

Feet still chilblains suffering. I know they are shiny I put Vasaline on them to stop rubbing.

There is a swath of land below the road level, its like a long park trees flowers bike track, running lanes, people doing aerobics

I hot some cooking gas from Decathlon. Then rode off.

I’m going to say this now and it’s not going to easily out of my mouth. I’m not as fit as I used to be. There it’s out. When I was younger I would have just blasted through I’m finding that increasingly hard to do. So I decided to change my route a bit and go a shorted distance and do a few days on the road, see if I can get some fitness back.

The route had a few hills, I went down a path by the river Turia but got stopped because a bridge had been swept away.
