050 Cycle Touring Central America - Part 1 - Costa Rica & Nicaraqua

(Leana) #1

(^66) León – San Isidro - 114 kilometres

From Leon, the road turned inland and headed towards the hills to San Isidro. Our
day consisted of a slow slog up the mountain; mercifully, it came with a cloud cover
and a mild gradient.

To our dismay, San Isidro turned out considerably further than the signboards
indicated. At first, the distance was expected at most 90 kilometres, but the 90-
kilometre mark came and went and still no San Isidro. Doubting whether we were
on the right road, we eventually made it to tiny San Isidro where we bunked down
at a hospidaje. Food was from a pavement eatery and I crawled in early as I wasn’t
feeling 100%.
