FIRST FINISHER OF NATACHA-ANDORRA
30-07-2017
Great news ! The first finisher of the national challenge in Andorra just arrived. His name is CODINA Arnau. He climbed the 25 climbs of the andorran list. It's the second finisher of a national challenge, after Gabor Kreicsi for the hungarian challenge. Note that Marius Cheregi leads the romanian challenge with 81 claims on 125 and Mojmir Skala leads the czech one with 20 claims on 150.

First of all, I would like to congratulate you on this exciting and hard-working project. And it's a pleasure for me to be part of the great Big Cycling family
Andorra is a country that I love a lot and is close to home.
The feedback is very positive. Aside from the long and hard climbing (famous), this project allows you to discover very beautiful and aesthetic corners. Although there are some that are important to specify information:
AND007: The road from half is not in conditions and it is necessary to go to MTB, and I could not reach the top.
AND022: The road is cut by a barrier on some occasions. A neighbor from the area told me that a house in the area does not like cyclists to climb because they excite dogs.
As a recommendation it would be great for the user to know the conditions of the road, to use a road bike or a mountain bike. It could be indicated with a symbol.
Some are difficult to find, as they are in the middle of urbanizations and need a previous research project. But that makes it more exciting! Hahahaha
I have a doubt, I would be grateful if you would confirm me. I thought that he had made 22 ascents and not 21 how do you say? Perhaps there is some climb that has not been registered. I have checked all of them and I can not find what it is!
I think that now I am only left AND007, AND008 and AND020, all of them with MTB. My plan was to make another visit to Andorra with MTB and have the challenge completed.
Thank you again!

In Salze, I have observed in detail google maps and I have seen that I did not get to the top. I pedaled until the road was over, but there was a broken one before I did not see it. Therefore, I will have to return !! Right now I delete my list! Now if I have 21! Hahaha
The route of the Ferro-Sorteny is shared for many kilometers by the climbing in Arcalis until a broken to the right. This road goes to a parking lot with an information point. There are lots of people and trekking. The route is not very busy and passes through a wonderful valley.
When I have climbed Salze (006) and Pic de la Carroi (008), I will send you a comment on my sensations! ok?
Thanks for the information on the photos. Now I will try it.
Let's see if I can finish the challenge in Andorra next visit!
Thanks again Dan.

Today, for the second time, I have returned to Salze (006) and Sispony (007) and this time I made a summit and I went the right way! I am very happy!
I have also done the Pic de Carroi (008). A very spectacular climb and without a doubt the hardest thing I've ever done on a bicycle. Waauuw !! Impossible to climb without stopping with my legs !! Hahahaaha!
And to finish the day, I went to Rec d'en Solà (020), a beautiful road on the city of "Andorra la Vella" that passes through the orchards. Beautiful and relaxing !!
Now, I can say that I have finished the Natachas d'Andorra. I am very happy and I would like to thank Bigcycling.eu for teaching me this little treasure of Andorra. Places little visited by most people.
Thank you very much Dan !!
Keep in touch!!
