[Leica] Nathan's PAD 21/5/2016: two worlds co-exist

[Nathan Wajsman]

Yesterday, I cycled up to the Puerto de la Carrasqueta mountain pass. I live at sea level and the pass is at 1020 metres, so it is decent climb. Basically, to get there I cycle on more or less flat terrain for the first 7-8 km and then more or less constantly uphill for the next 30 km. The reward is the subsequent descent but also the sight I see every time I go up there. 

Yesterday, during the initial stages of the ride, I came across this herder and his dog guiding the flock to pasture:

Then, at the Puerto, I met many other cyclists, both road types (of which I am one) and mountain bikers. The area is great for both kinds of cycling:

And then I rolled home, letting gravity do its thing :-)

Cheers,
