Photos!

I got around my technological issues, so get ready for a deluge of pics from my riding forays around here. For starters, pictures from the "no-coffee" coffee ride on Friday...

The thing you see in the background is my mountain, seen from the north end of my hometown. I grew up seeing that hill (altitude 1,095m or 3,593ft), called Sant Llorenç del Munt. That's not where I rode on Friday, though--there is no road that goes up there.

Another view of Sant Llorenç del Munt, a bit closer.

Road on the way to Coll d'Estenalles. Typical riding landscape around here: kind of steep roads, good pavement, and pines and oak trees and spiky bushes everywhere.

"Porcs senglars" means wild boars in Catalan. I didn't see any though.

One of the steepest sections of the climb, around km. 10. I didn't even bother chasing those guys--no chasing during coffee rides.

Textbook switchback.

The summit!
