The Sierra Nevada Psycho's

Yep, I'm on another jaunt! This time joined by 5 other like minded 'nutters' on a cycling trip across the Sierra Nevada mountains in southern Spain.

Arriving at the 'Rock'
Alex, Dave, Phil, Mel, Steve (our top support guy) & I, flew in to Gibraltar from East Midlands this afternoon, picked up a hire car (support vehicle), assembled the bikes and rode to our hotel in La Linea.

Dave, me, Alex, Phil, Mel, Steve.
Tomorrow we commence the first of 6 days of riding; picking out way north and west across the Sierra Nevada towards Almeria, before flying home next Saturday. It promises to be a hot, arduous and eventful journey. I'm looking forward to it.......I think!

Keep you posted

    Hope first night was the usual red wine assault and Phil regretting it this morning. KDGJ

    Is that hill in the background the first climb of the day? KDGJ

    Be aware that Dave needs wine at lunch-time and a wi-fi connection in the evening

      No, but I'm rooming with Dave, who is a bit of an ape, although he assures me that he hasn't got a bright red arse :-)
