Ronda 7 March 2022: Bridges & Bullfighters<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cycled into Ronda to view the town\u2019s bridges and the bullfighting stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There were a selection of bridges: The New Bridge; the Old Bridge and the Even Older Bridge. All of these are built from the local stone. The later bridges being much higher than their predecessors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had a tour of the bullfighting stadium. The main events take place in September each year so there were no bulls in residence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
