Smooth power

San Sebastian to Lekeitio
97 km , 1506 m
Three big climbs of about 250 m+ each and pleased to manage to stay out the red, but the descents on the wide smooth roads were fairly terrifying for the boy from Surrey.
Stopped at a friendly cafe and the hotel was a welcome sight just as the drizzle was setting in, making the descents more spicy.
