A long bike ride

January 4, 2012   

I rented a mountain bike to head out to Cerro 7 Coloyres which is mountain of 7 colours. It was actually a little hillock! By the time I got there the clouds had come in and there was thunder and lightening with splatterings of rain.


I also went to see an old structure that was built in the XVIII century of mud. They were used to process the gold and silver mined in the area by the Spanish.


On the way to the little coloured hillock there were a bunch of horses being driven down to the valley.


There were also a ton of roadside shrines.


Total distance ridden was 34km and I went through all my water. Afterwards it was time for a large ice cream!


The dogs at the hostel are very cool there is about 5 of them mostly golden retrievers. They aren’t allowed into the hostel so they sit in the window looking for someone to play with them or pet them.
