This was drawn in the village of El burgo, over an impressive descent from Ronda in Andalucia. We went to watch the pro cyclists gruelling through a very unseasonally wet tour. The day stayed dry though, and we sat on a roundabout eating a picnic as locals gathered. Finally the peleton sped through and the small village returned to a much more leisurely pace. We returned to ride the mountain 2 days later – a combined ascent that day of 2600m. Emotional.
