Amazing cycle: Montes Málaga to Riogordo and back.
Started at the top of Montes Malaga, in familiar, and stunning scenery, but then towards Colmenar it felt like you were in the Italian Dolomites. With a snow view towards Sierra Nevada. Then continuous green rolling fields, and down hill to Riogordo. Beautiful. Uphill most of the way back. Took longer than anticipated, so finished with a sunset at the Feunte again. What a marvelous day. The scenery did not feel real. (Battery ran out at Colmenar on the way back. Plus 2 hours and 300m of elevation)

Alora to La Termica
The start of the route went along the river, but got interupted by a farmer who had put up a barbed wire fence. Then a lovely view point, before Pizarra. And a lunch stop in the monastery plaza, before continuing to Cartama Estacion, and cutting across to the other side of the river, and onto the end of airport. The regular trail has been dug up a bit around here. But lovely to get sunset on the wooden bridge, and head onto the seafront. 43km, plus about 4 more to the house. Can feel it.

Bike Ride Pizarra to La Union, Málaga.
Pizarra is lovely, and most of the cycle to Campinilas was great, but then it got too much traffic, and I definitely took a wrong turn somewhere. Probably closer to rio guadalhorce and returning near the airport is better.

Aquaduct and Waterfall
Acuaducta y cascada. Not far from the city and the Botanical Gardens. Went the wrong way to see the waterfall from below. But great from above too
