| What a spectacular and difficult ride. Lots of single track, which I don´t normally do. Fell over the handle bars a few times in the decsent. About 15 km up to 4000m, traverse along the top of the volcano, and then way, way down for a total of about 45km. Spent the night in Piedrancha and rode back up the main hiway the next day. There were about 300 cyclists in this ´tour´...not a race. Above: from Pasto to Tuquerres in a Chiva. |
