75 Miles today

Got off good and early this morning hoping to make Ponferrado by evening. I knew that the second half of my ride would be tough as my maps says it reaches 1200 meters. I got to Astorga by 10:30, and was on the road for Ponferrado (about 60K away) by 11:30.
The first 20K was fine, the next 20k was constantly uphill, I had to use "first gear" a few times Walking!
But the last 20k was like being back on my motorcycle, just had to be careful of the sheep! It was freeezing though, I thought Spain was hot!
