RtG The Daily Dispatch - Carrera Andalucia - day 00 - Flipbook - Page 5
22 June to 3 July 2025
Day 2
Nerja to Granada (263km)
With no landslides to deal with, we enjoyed a full
day of competition today with four Regularities.
The route saw the Carrera Andalucía rise from the
shores of the Mediterranean to the foothills of the
Sierra Nevada, where, despite the mercury hitting
38.5°C at times, there was still some snow to be
seen on the upper slopes.

The day was an intense one, but it began with an easy ride
along the coast towards a Passage Control at Torre de la
Rijana, where Fred Gallagher and Jim Smith had pitched
their deck chairs in the shade of the RtG supplies wagon.
It was a morning of steep climbs and endless hairpins
with the two Regularities from Lújar and Rubite coming in
quick succession as part of a wider loop around the Sierra
de Lújar and the neighbouring Sierra de la Contraviesa. This
