Location

In a thistle field (yet agein), close to a not completed new development area (yet again), on the outskirts of Cabañas de la Sagra.

Expedition

At first, I felt not very tempted to do this one. The location did not look very interesting, the route comprised all kinds of roads, small ones, big ones, four lane motorways, roads I knew, roads I didn't, most of them not particularly attractive for motorcycling.

Nevertheless, I decided to go. It was a relatively long trip, a well over an hour motorcycle ride, a complicated route, and I wanted to bring the complete photo equipment with tele lens, so the bike of choice was the old Goldwing, offering comfort, mounting for the navigation system, and ample luggage capacity.

In the end, it was a nice ride, and the previously unknown part was more interesting than expected, with diverse views ranging from idyllic setlements nested in the hills to derelicted industrial areas. Walking through the deserted thistle field in search for the geohash with the motorway rushing in the distance was kind of elevating. I was happy that I did this one.
