They didn’t open the gates till 9.30. I was at the gate ready to go.
The day started bright and sunny, the blue sky was wonderful to see. Within minutes I had my jacket off and short sleeves were perfect attire.
I thought iknew the road as I’d ridden and driven it s few times, but once again it threw up so surprises
I was hoping to go through Cadiar for coffee and a few supplies but the route turned off 1.5 kms early. I decided to carry on into Cadiar. Where Carrefour supplied me with food. I did stop for some what turned out to be the worst toast and tomatoes I have had so far.
There was a substantial amount of climbing today. But if course the effort of the climb is offset by the views.
The climb continued Garmin had quite a few red bits, I just set my gear on the lowest and spun my legs.
Eventually Trevelez came into sight 1600meters up. It’ll be a cool night.
I rode into the campsite and had to wait 40 mins for the reception to open. But tent set up. Once again just as the tent was up it started to rain.
I have been to this campsite 3 or 4 times before. Its good
A Couple of Days Ride Outta.......
