Some riders enjoyed the pass over 3.000m height once the event finished to go back to Granada
I did it after food and a good rest in the race haha. Poor Bruno thought we'd be racing each other up there, he rode, while I was eating dinner and going to bed in a nice hotel room. :D
But I wasn't going to climb Veleta a second time in the middle of the night. I'm glad I saw it during the day, it's an amazing climb.She's got experience off-road now (https://thehippy.net/blog/an-turas-mor-glasgow-to-cape-wrath-day-2/) so she might actually be up for racing this time instead of just chilling out in Granada (she hired a bike and climbed Veleta during Badlands so wasn't that chill).

Still dealing with the Veleta Pass. The 2021 route finished at the bottom of Veleta (Capileira). Some riders enjoyed the pass over 3.000m height once the event finished to go back to Granada, after a good rest and food, and without pressure because of the deadline... it's also a great option.
Mal is always welcome, with or without her bike ;)
