Flat terrain too all the way but after Carri&oacute;n de Los Condes I realized terrain was not so dry, but greener. Another 40 kms until Sahag&uacute;n where I decided I was gonna have lunch. Ride kept on being boring and almost without traffic, maybe one car every ten minutes or so. Anyway, there were moments were I could listen to me pedal strokes, my breathing, enjoy the Sun on my face and that was nice.<\/p>\n<p>At Sahag&uacute;n I made a long stop (about an hour). Needed to eat something asides from energy bars after around 150 kms. Not much to see in Sahag&uacute;n either, but you could certainly see the increase in the amount of pilgrims heading to Compostela. So after Sahag&uacute;n I went to Le&oacute;, which was like 50 kms away. At this time I was really eager to arrive to Le&oacunte;n. Theres a cross were you leave N-120 to take N-601. I made another stop in Matallana de Madrigal to buy some water, but got back on the road really fast because there were thunderstorms and I didnt wanted to get wet. And after a flat and mostly boring stage I arrived to Le&oacute;n at around 1930.<br \/>\n<div id=\"attachment_1078\" style=\"width: 179px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.xavignu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/IMG_20150623_193652.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1078\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.xavignu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/IMG_20150623_193652-169x300.jpg\" alt=\"Almost 8 hours later\" width=\"169\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1078\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.xavignu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/IMG_20150623_193652-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/www.xavignu.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/IMG_20150623_193652.jpg 432w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 169px) 100vw, 169px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-1078\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Almost 8 hours later<\/p><\/div>Well deserved bath at the hotel and quick dinner at a local bar (typical spanich look).
