It´s in Navarra (Spain)."La Bardenas" is a "curious" protected natural park and Unesco biosphera reserve: es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bardenas_Reales
"curious" because inside natural park there is a military zone where the military try their bombs from airplanes sad
Thanks for your coments
Regards.

Juann,

Great pano indeed!
Does Decathlon makes good frames? I've spotted this brand in the local Decathlon chainstore.
My taste is spoiled by Cannondale, GT and Haro smile

Cheers,
Andrey

What a great pano!
Did you use timer or remote shutter release?

Andrey , I think Decathlon is the best relation price/quality , my frame 5Xc (good enough to down allmost all wild tracks) is made in Spain blush 5 years guarantee ,the entire bike: 300 euros ., extra deore disc brakes at both wheels:100 euros both at www.fizzbikes.com/ (very low prices),enough for me to try to break my bones laugh
Bill,(thanks for remember me) I used a remote control plus 2 seconds delay , tried 3 times to take the best frame.
Thanks all for your coments.
Cheers.
Juann
