Real de Catorce.
We went to this incredible town. You have to ride 20 kilometers on cobbled. I drop the bike the first time here. I realized that if I was riding fast, around 50mph the bikes was going smoother. But there was an slow truck in front of me, so I stopped to let it go and my boot slip on the stones and I drop the bike. Nothing happened to it just an small scratch on the crash bars.


Real de Catorce is an old mining town. You have to cross trough the mine to get to the town. This is the mine tunnel.



The tunnel was close to traffic because there was a fiesta and a procession on the town. I had to wait 3 hours outside so I took some pictures.



Finally they open the tunnel. It was amazing! With a lot of sub tunnels for mining plus a lot of small chapels with Virgins.



This is the town
