Best ride so day so far, journey was from Teruel to Sagunto.  Lush green mountain and valleys. Steep climbs and great drops any cyclist would enjoy.

Karen4

Ooh, hard work! Well done to all of them! I'm a beginner and am hard pushed to do 10 km and then I'm nearly crying for my Mum! The hubby is a keen cyclist and would have easily done hours and hours but now forgets he's not 25 any more!
Very interesting speedycar, I'm enjoying reading about the progress, thanks!
