Day 9 – off relatively early towards Granada. Turned off a while before
getting there and headed up into the countryside. Past the sound of
shooting and keep on climbing. All the way to 1200m or thereabouts
between Sierra de Chaparral and the stunning spiky peaks of de Sierra
de Tejida. We lost most of the mornings climbing shortly after that as
we hurtled towards the sea, turning off before Motril to grunt over a
super steep but thankfuly short climb towards Molivar. Short by Spanish
standards that is. Dropped down to the main road to hit a coffee stop
before a steady ‘undulating’ route back to Motril. Another ice cream steeled
us for the last few k back to the cortijo. Tomorrow we’ll continue the search
for more routes to quell the rumour that this area doesn’t have enough riding!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
