Not a living soul who comes here. It's a whole series of little mountains attached to each other actually. The hardest part is that you get a few kilometres before the top as quite high and then descend again for a long time. The tarmac is a mishmash of surfaces. The descent to Castile-Leon is erratic and very poor in terms of tarmac. The views, however, are forever on your mind. A magnificent dragon you must have done.... read more

Geen levende ziel die hier komt. Het zijn een hele reeks van bergjes aan elkaar eigenlijk. Het moeilijkste is dat je een paar kilometer voor de top als vrij hoog komt en dan weer lang afdaalt. Het asfalt is een allegaar aan ondergronden.
De afdaling naar Castilië-Leon is grillig en zeer slecht qua asfalt. De uitzichten staan echter voor altijd op het netvlies. Een schitterende draak die je gedaan moet hebben.
