More borders …
This time it is the small stream marking the border.
There is no signs, so I only know because the GPS is telling me 😉

Borders …
I’m at the border between France and Spain on a plain, 1700 meter above the sea, and the border is just marked with a wooden pole.
So my bike is in Spain, and I’m taking the picture from France – and my helmet is hanging on the border pole 🌏⛰️👍
Route Barrée …
Probably means “Road Closed”. But in reality it means “check for yourself”, and in this case there was no road block or obstacles to get over the mountain !
Vulture feeding …
To keep the big vultures in the mountains, a feeding place have been established.
The vultures have a 2,5 – 2,8 meter wingspan and are fed with whole sheeps 😱
Breakfast sandwich …
With a scenic view in the mountains. Easy to get used to 😉
Local market …
Shopping for breakfast and lunch – to go !
Fried Camenbert cheese …
With honey and fried potatoes for dinner 👍
Atlantic Ocean …
I’ve done it – riding my bike in the Pyrenees from the Mediterranean to the Atlantic 👍🏆🏁
Tomorrow I’m going east again – this time on the French side of the mountains ⛰️
Abandoned village …
There is quite a few of them in Northern Spain, but most of them are quite hard to access or spoiled by grafitti.
I could get to this one by a track that was once a dirt road. The “road” had not been maintained for many years, and I doubt a 4WD car could get through, but is was possible on my bike.
Pilgrim route …
To Santiago de Compostela. But also a public road for the rest of us 👍
