Was supposed to be 61 miles, but it got shortened to go through Pereria to save some mles. However, just like last time through Pereira, the traffic was crazy. The word 'harrowing' was invented for that situation. The day started wet. 6 and 7% curvey downhills for a couple miles then the same grades uphill for 7 miles. No flat riding here, all up or down. We got onto a 4 lane highway for the rest of the way to Manzales. 30 mph downhills (often 40) and lowest gear uphills. I'm feeling more comfortable climbing, but I've had lots of practice this last week. The last climb to Manizales was 8.4 miles/2480' climbing. The app shows 5.9% average, but the last 3 miles or so to town were 8 and 9%. But I made it. not the last one, but far from the first. Just glad I got there before the rain. Not sure how much of tomorrow I'll do, 46 miles 6800' climbing, it's an out and back but shows 17.7 miles at 5800' of climbing. Evidently a big challenge for cyclists from around the world.
