May 01, 2008: Medellín to La Pintada
Big climb out of Medellin, but the route we took out of the city was wonderfully calm and easy. But there was lots of holiday traffic on the big climb. Hundreds of cyclists on the route for the holiday. The climb was once again not as steep as the bad climbs in Guatemala, even though it was a lot of work.
There is camping at a fancy holiday place with swimming pool in La Pintada, but we didn´t do it as it was a bit expensive.
