Weather forecast lived up to its promise. So reduced miles planned. The first 20 was hard going with frequent stops for shelter.
Breakfast was amazing and one of the best I had on this trip.
Different strategy for tomorrow. Route planned but no room booked. Weather still unstable so I want to make distance if I can but with the option of stopping if I need to. Normally I book a day ahead at a time for hotels, but I need more flexibility than normal. Good news is that there are plenty of hotels to choose from.
This is what I set off in. Zero motivation….even for just 31 miles!
This picture gives a flavor of the ride. Here things are starting to clear up. Could have done more miles, but hotel booking is committed.
This is Segovia. Lovely place and I would have stayed longer for some tourist picture taking. I was soaked, so needed to press on to the hotel.
What is the obsessional fad with cobbles in old places? They are a nightmare to cycle on.
