I. Rode. This. Greatest road ever including the "cravat knot":





This is the road to Coll dels Reis from Sa Calobra in Mallorca.
It's easier than it looks, it's a 700m climb with an average of 7% and a couple of short pieces a little steeper.

It was über-cool.
Considering my season was screwed but now I firmly believe I'm fixed.

Whee!!! first. Wow!!! second.
Because you get to descend first, then climb it. Sa Calobra is a tiny hamlet now-turned-tourist-trap that used to be only accessible by sea before the road was built. Initially as a gravel path, for smuggling.
