Weather
With an average of 320 days of sunshine a year, good weather is almost guaranteed. However, there can be variations in temperature with altitude and between day and night. The temperatures in February to early May range from 10 degrees C and 25 degrees C with a possibility of showers. From mid-May to July and September it ranges between 18 and 30 degrees C and in August the temperatures can reach 35 degrees. However, riding at altitude always brings a wonderful fresh breeze and makes these temperatures very comfortable. In October and November temperatures drop back to between 20 and 25 degrees C and there may be the odd shower. Early mornings and evenings can be cool even in the summer.
