Andalucía confirmed for being amazing for gravel cycling.
Bit of a blog with maybe some useful info for anyone in future, maybe not, idc. Intent was to do shortened version of Badlands in reverse starting from Malaga. Open to changing bits along the way as wasn't too precious about any of it really as I knew wherever we went it'd be great. Which it was, cant really go too wrong...
Day1.
Fly to Malaga.
Build bike in airport.
Meet @Netakure.
Train to Eat Sleep Cycle in Malaga as other bike has been posted to them
Build bike in shop -much more civilized.
Meet good guy Jose in the shop.
Eat pasta & pedal out on the coast into a crap headwind and get the fear as it already feels hard. Road up to Competa - I wanted to cross a national park (Sierras De Tejeda) to make it more gravellly (sp?).
Grabbed staples of bread, meat and cheese.
Camped at Fabrica de la luz which has a little camping area by a stream which was ace as it was unexpected - had a toilet which was decadent.
Pillow has a slow puncture and rear derailleur doesn't shift properly.
Good day however only 1 beer consumed.
