All the gear. Little idea of the steepness. I managed to keep moving. It’s was tough and beautiful. Packed for camping I skipped all Refugi’s… they came to early on the day or I had no dinner/breakfast on me. Loved speaking with 4 other riders, the 2 on the picture were from the USA and riding the opposite direction in 17 days (I was on a 6 day scheme). A 1hr brutal hike a bike from 06 to 07 AM felt like mental gymnastics but I loved the change. I hated falling from standstill 3 times, not able to unclip. The fault lied in me, the spd pedals appeared to be adjustable. I knew it, but never ever used it.
