Rural roads in Murcia province!

Recommended Posts

I was out for a few hours as temps were perfect at 24C......ended up turning off the main road near Barranda and going along some rural roads I've never been on.

You get a few isolated farming properties here and there but apart from those you won't see any sign of life!

Obviously I found some abandoned shit......but not as much as I expected!

Ended up on a road I'd been on before.......

.....and some ruins I'd visited in the past at some point.

But this time there were decomposing farm animals strewn around the place......fucking stinking it was!

About 100 miles in all........makes a nice change not to sweat my nuts off!

Please note the absence of a van.......cos I believe in keeping it real!

But it's only 100 miles and then you get soooooooooooooooo  much better roads.  I'm not getting on your case but you've got so much potential where you live ?

Actually at some point I'm going to visit the Sierra Espuña for the Abandoned Sanitorium! That's where I was going to see @Skippy.

It's been on the cards for a long time, but travel restrictions from Oct to May prevented it......then when those were lifted the wall of heat came down.

Do it mate, there is soooooooooooooo  much to see where you live.  You don't even need to find abandoned shit, just look at some of those roads, if I get fit again and I have the time I'm heading your way.
