Came the end of this VI Kaliber-Andalucia, in this day has run the sixth stage of the raid between the cities of Cárdenas and Andujar (Sanctuary of the Virgen de la Cabeza).
Regained, and is the third time, "HERMES" mythical horse and not only in Andalusia but throughout Spain, this time ridden by the rider sanluqueña Marta Hidalgo in a quiet day, as their pursuers have not been able to stand up has managed not only to maintain the difeencia he had in the day yesterday, but the point has been increased and also won this stage, since it has been seconds from winning this stage and also Sanlúcar Colonia Jorge Montaño.
He started the day, as usual, before the clear day, and that that thought had to leave at 9 am, but the transfer from Montoro to Cardena, makes us early.
There was dawn when the birds singing and the noise of the Guadalquivir, gave us good morning in the Hotel Mirador de Montoro, with its beautiful views overlooking the Rio Grande de Andalucia.
On the football field Cardeñas, concentrate all participants, for a collective veterinary inspection, as the horse's health is the primary purpose of the Organizing Committee and the Veterinary Commission.
They turn to repaint all the numbers of horses, for this last stage that runs through the magnificent Natural Park Place New Cardeña.
Today I go back to play this wonderful Nature Reserve to the participants of the trial, did not know the park for its interior and part I could see, as an unfortunate accident by a French rider, had to return for trodden steps to make it safe to mother injured.
Is to name the good work of 112, which served us diligently on the petition of the final evacuation of the injured, as the organization treated him, immobilized and evacuated to the nearest health center to the Park, as was Cardeña.
Removing this unfortunate accident, the rider is well, how nice the way it is worth crossing the Park, galloping tracks is a pleasure, flowering vegetation and oak, pine and other trees create an atmosphere which everyone has admired . All participants agree on the majesty of the environment.
Arriving at the river Jandula, is the Vet-Gate site to remember, if the road is nice, the New Place area watered by the river, not lagging behind.
