Though Repsol has served us well, we missed electricity and decided to spent the other Madrid trip night on a real campsite. We chose one near Toledo, both because it was close to Sonseca track, which was on schedule on Sunday, and because Toledo was told to be a really nice old town. The camping site was very nice and it turned out there are benefits in travelling during low season; besides us there were only 3 other mobilehomes, one camping trailer and one tent. And yes, you read right: tent. As we took a late walk to see the city in the night light, a couple was comfortably sitting in front of a campfire beside their tent. That night we didn't complain about the little chilliness... only one look to the thermometer which showed figures close to zero and we were very satisfied with our styrox walls and extra floor heating.
On Sunday we took a tourist tour in Toledo. As told, the former capital built on the hilltop was very attractive with old stone houses and narrow alleys. As the downtown was surrounded by a river, there were also impressive bridges leading to city. On one occasion we decided to follow a quide with large red flower held above her head. Because of this we are probably now represented in several Japanise holiday pictures, but at least we got a good tour. We'll add some more photos of the town later.
The Sonseca track was watered and prepaired very Californian like. It offered excellent groove training tought after 2 intensive riding days the rider was already a bit tired. Some ideas of the track in the video below.
