L2L Day 24 - Najera to Belorado

 This was a short, but difficult 32 mile bike day.  Mostly we rode through farmlands.  We stopped at Santa Domingo de la Calzada and had a Spanish tortilla (not the same as tortilla at home).  We think it's a combo of potatoes, cheese and eggs.  Super delish!  Also a cup of coffee.  It was only 6 Euros for the both of us!

Most of the day was headwind and hills, so 32 miles was enough!  Tomorrow we have a similar ride, but not as much ascent going into Burgos.  Our plan is to stay at Burgos 3 days because a storm front is moving through (see pic below).  The little circle is positioned on Burgos and the color red on the wind chart is 30+ mph sustained wind with gusts up to 65 mpg.  We will hunker down and maybe have to make up the mileage later (or take a train if necessary).

So, tomorrow, Burgos where the foody tour begins!  :)
