This morning it was time to say goodbye to Benjamin and Malaga. It was two lovely days that I was able to spend here. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to new goals and looking forward to further experiences and encounters.

I already had such an unexpected encounter today. Somewhere between Torremolinos and Marbella in the middle of the wilderness, I overtook another cyclist who was also fully loaded. Then he called after me because he recognized that I was Swiss. So I stopped and it turned out that he was also from Switzerland, somewhere in the Bern region. His name is Alex and he started in Barcelona. However, there are still many things that make us different. He is traveling with a normal touring bike with a tent and just wants to ride to Cadiz and fly home from there or a little further west. We had a short and friendly conversation. I actually wish I had such friendly encounters even more.

The routes out of Malaga can be described as good, but later things got worse. It was the same with the weather. At around 18 degrees it was pleasant to drive and despite the moderate wind I made good progress. But things soon changed after meeting Alex. There were a few rain showers and I had to take shelter twice. The rain jacket has proven itself very well and I was happy about it, even when it's windy it's much warmer.

Unfortunately, I had to go onto the federal highway a few times today, i.e. a 4-lane expressway, which cyclists are also allowed to use, or have to do if there are no alternatives. I hate it but will have to do it a few more times.

I had some trouble finding the hotel today. On the one hand, there were construction sites without a specified detour and Komoot once again showed a route where there was only wilderness. That meant a few extra kilometers, but I coped well with it.

In the end I still arrived at a good time, which left me enough time for a beer and relaxation.

This mañana tocaba despedirse de Benjamín y Málaga. Fueron dos días maravillosos los que pude pasar aquí. Sin embargo, espero with another new meta and new experiences and experiences.

You're in a dream like this. In all directions between Torremolinos and Marbella, in the middle of the natural world, it is ideal for other cycling and is also fully charged. Luego me llamó porque reconoció que yo era suizo. Entonces paré and resultó que él también era de Suiza, de Algún lugar de la region de Berna. Hello Alex and empezó in Barcelona. Sin embargo, todavía hay muchas cosas que nos hacen diferentes. Viaja with a bicicleta de turismo normal with time of camp and solo to Cádiz and volar a casa desde allí or a more remote location. Mantuvimos una conversation breve y amistosa. In this case, we want to see more of our friends.

The roads of Salida de Málaga are worth the calificar de Buenas, pero luego la cosa empeoró. The mismo ocurrió con el climate. During the 18th grade, the conductor was able to move, and the world was moderated, progressing bien. Each time we came together, we talked to Alex. Hubo algunos chubascos y tuve que refuge dos veces. The impermeable chaqueta has demonstrated its efficiency and contents with everything, including the fact that it has much more heat.

Unfortunately, because of the different federal highways, it is decided that there is a 4-carriageway, so that the bikes can be used or used in another way. The same thing tends to happen in a different way.

There were problems with finding the hotel today. Por a lado, había obras sin a desvío definido y Komoot volvió a mostrar una ruta donde solo había naturaleza salvaje. This means that all the kilometers are bigger, but the distance is better.

At the end, in a good moment, I find myself enjoying a good time to enjoy a cerveza and relax.

There were a few rain showers and I had to take shelter twice. The rain jacket proved very useful and I was glad I had it, even in the wind it is much warmer.

Unfortunately, I had to go onto the main road a few times today, ie a 4-lane highway that cyclists are allowed to use, or rather have to, if there are no alternatives. I hate it, but I will have to do it a few more times.

I had some trouble finding the hotel today. On the one hand, there were construction sites with no diversions indicated and Komoot once again showed a path where there was only wilderness. That meant a few extra kilometers, but I coped well with that.
