Amazing roads, fantastic routes, more bike shops than you can imagine, bike lanes all over the city, shockingly quiet rural roads, drivers that respect cyclists…no region in the US can even come close.
I cycled up to Mare de Déu del Mont. 54 mile ride with 5,400’ of gain. Like every other ride, more cyclists on the roads than cars, by far. There’s an old church at the top. That first image is what I saw on my approach, it’s the left pointy peak. Way up there!Girona city. We’re staying in Bari Vell, which is Catalon for “Old Town”. Girona is about the size of Santa Fe, but is a university town, and apparently has a binary demographic: Gen Z’ers, and Boomers. Plus, about a zillion interesting restaurants.

Sounds like another great trip. I always enjoy your photography too.
I have been doing 25 – 50-mile rides around Santa Fe in my e-assist handcycles.
An American from Durango won the Vuelta a España!
Cheers!
