Your Bike in front of a Church

[Andy in Germany]

The little ermita almost at the top of the Puerto de Vegare 1560m.

People are serious about what they believe over there, aren't they? Imagine climbing that every Sunday...

Another image, it has the last mountain stream so good clean water.

In the second pic I notice it seems to have loopholes, so it may have been shelter from banditry as well.

What a coincidence!

I was there earlier this evening for the first time and was interested in the French Priest's headstone!

Yesterday was also my first visit, after passing for years. You have just reminded me to look him up and check that the 'French', is his surname.

Hope the legs are ok! Cycle-camped up there years back, some tough climbs. Stunning area though

Glad it was down, the scenery and old buildings makes it all worth while. Might have a rest day, road up to the Lagos is being repaired. Getting ahead of the cut off time is unlikely.
