    Camino 3 Estella to Logrono

    July 5, 2019 in Spain ⋅ ⛅ 25 °C

    Back in the game although the day begins with a puncture. I was faffing with the tube change until a very elderly man came out of a nearby cafe with a knife and fork in hand (??) and took over - clearly couldn't bare watching my incompetancy any longer!
    Now we are ready for our 50km ride through Rioja wine country, starting with encountering a red wine tap just out of Estella – not normally one for a wine at 8am but had to be sampled!
    Beautiful climb up through forest and then up a hot dirt track, although the more km we can do before noon the better, as post-noon turns to heat o'clock, with temperature around 35 degrees.
    All up a lovely day with varied terrain and very varied landscape.
