Day 1: Pechina to Arroyo Frio

The first day we already will ride 350 km/ 220 mi to get used to the area where wi well pass the Sierra de los Filabres with the highest peak of over 7100ft. Despite the desert part in the south where a lot of "Desperados" movies have been made such as Western with Clint Eastwood, and Bud Specncer & Terence HIll, we will see as well the northern part which is dominated by Almond trees, Olive trees and citrus fruits...what a beautiful start..

Spagetthi Western city...

Mini Hollywood....

Attention Lynx crossing !!!!
tire change just before Easter shut down for the next 4 days…… very lucky….
Dinner well deserved fter this tough day..

Day 4: Andujar to Alcaucin

Today was a very challanging day. Temperature dropped 15ºC from 25º to 10º with a lot of local showers. So we were lucky and could drive almost around all thunderstorms

Day 5: Alcaucin to La Calahorra

Tofay was another spectacuar riding. We startet in the Sierra Tejada with about 9ºC and arrived for lunch at the beach with sunny 25ºC . 2,5 hours later we have been up in the Sierra Nevada at an altitude of about 2100 m ( +6000ft) with snow and 2ºC what a difference.....and a Cafe con leche warmed us up again So we had from everything a little bit despite the breathtaking views and another 1000s.... of curves. Whatelse do you want  

Luckily we had a reservation it was Friday before Easter Weekend !!!!
Paella at its best and at the beach…..
Snow and 2ºC... at the Puerto de la Ragua in the Sierra Nevada

Day 6: La Calahorra to Pechina

Already the last day to enjoy and ride the mountains between Almeria and Malaga. Unfortunatly we had some rain during the day however we had a great trip and a super final day......Thank you so much Susan & Ramsey
