It was a lovely ride that again took in some breathtaking scenery. From the top you could see all the way down to the Port of Santa Cruz, the city of La Laguna, and even the little village of Igueste that I had cycled to on Wednesday and Thursday.
The ride itself was nearly 60 kms in length and included about 18 kms of non-stop uphill. No wonder my legs were so sore for the rest of Saturday and most of Sunday too!
Looking down at Benijo, on the northern coast of the Island.
Looking back towards San Andres and the beach at Las Teresitas (where the climb had begun).
La Laguna as seen from afar.

This is Igueste, the village I cycled to a few days previously.
View down to the ocean north.
Through this gate there was a little rough track that I cycled down.
There were many beautiful flowers on this path.

Taken on my descent back to San Andres and eventually Santa Cruz. A road is just visible on the top left peak of the mountain range in the distance - this was where I was.
