EPISODE #64
I'm super excited to share this with you... this was an incredible week long cycling trip that I went on in December last year. This trip came about after I was spontaneously asked to go on it by my new friend Benjamin. Before this I hadn't met either of my cycling buddies on this trip, so that was exciting in itself... meeting new people and cycling a multi day journey across the beautiful Spainish countryside. What more do you want!
However, it certainly wasn't all smooth sailing... we come into quite a few troubles aliong the way, not mention the weather being far from ideal! But we don't let that get in our way of having an incredible time on our bikes.
This episode (part 1) take you along on our journey for the first 3 days of our trip. We start on in Alicante and start making our way along the coast, stopping in Benidorm, then Valencia and finally ending up at our half way point in a small town high in the Spanish mountains...
This really was an amazing trip, I hope you enjoy reliving it with me!
