I went on a 76 km ride in the mountains this morning. The first stop was in the
mountain town of Tibi, after about 41 km and some hard climbing. This is a view
of the town:

I bought a Coke in a grocery store and looked for a bench to have a few minutes
rest. But then this old-timer, sitting in his garage and watching the world go
by, pulled out a chair and called me to join him in the shade:

My Coke break ended up being about 20 minutes, a lot longer than I normally
would rest—but I had a nice conversation with my newfound friend. I took a
selfie of us before leaving for the final 35 km leg back to Alicante:

It was a nice morning out, and I can feel it in my legs right now.
Cheers,
