Final statistics Spain

I was looking forward to cycling again, but today is a merciless day. It rains all day. On top of that, there are four high peaks, so that at the end of the day I have climbed 1 400 metres in altitude (the route over the Pyrenees had 1 530). Driving is no fun today ☹️
I am a bit frozen through and keep warm during the day with thoughts of a crackling fireplace and a cosy sheepskin blanket, at some point I don't want to anymore and pitch the tent almost right next to the road.
I crawl into my warm sleeping bag and forget about the rain outside. All is well again. 😄

In the afternoon I roll out of Spain and into Portugal. Time for a little final statistics:
