Left Calaceite just after 8:00. Stopped for fuel about 10 mins later. Fuelled up with the help of a nice lady and hit the road.
Within 20 miles or so , I started to feel the cold. It had been ok when I left but although bright sun, the temp seemed to be slipping the other way.
After 60 miles I reached Zaragoza, by which time I was quite cold. I hadn't expected that. On went my jumper. On to the autovia. As we climbed towards the Pyrenees, I was no warmer and could only imagine the mountains would be colder still. I stopped again. On went my waterproof jacket to keep the wind/chill out. That seemed to stem the cold tide.
My return journey is the same as the outward, so I've crossed through the Pyrenees and from Spain to France via a 5.3 mile tunnel. 5.3 miles at 14 degrees.
Now in France the temperature has risen to 22 degrees. I'd not eaten, so I have stopped at McDs for egg mcmuffin and coffee. Hoping I'll warm up and outside will stay warm and dry to Bordeaux.
