It is a pleasant little place, but getting there on bicycle is what makes it special. Although the altitude is modest at 850 m above sea level, the 14 km climb from the town of Relleu is one of the most brutal around here, with stretches of 16-17% slope. Negotiating that road in the summer heat, even in the morning, is what separates the men from the boys. This past weekend I went there for the first time. The road sure is pretty: http://www.greatpix.eu/All/Picture-A-Day/4253606_kdsZ6C#!i=4222879688&k=MmC3mxv&lb=1&s=O And the town has a unique way of providing shade on its main street: http://www.greatpix.eu/All/Picture-A-Day/4253606_kdsZ6C#!i=4222879673&k=XGPbJr9&lb=1&s=O Cheers, Nathan Nathan Wajsman Alicante, Spain http://www.frozenlight.eu <http://www.frozenlight.eu/> http:// <http://www.greatpix.eu/>www.greatpix.eu PICTURE OF THE WEEK: http://www.fotocycle.dk/paws <http://www.fotocycle.dk/paws>Blog: http://nathansmusings.wordpress.com/ <http://nathansmusings.wordpress.com/> Cycling: http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/belgiangator <http://www.crazyguyonabike.com/belgiangator> YNWA
