I've just made it onto the road out of La Bañeza, which passes through a fairly run down industrial agricultural area before crossing a disused and overgrown railway line and leaving the town.
As I was about 500 metres south of the last junction a car came up behind and stopped level with me.
A friendly face beamed out, "are you doing the ruta de la plata?", he shouted. I explained I was, but going down the way, southwards. "ah, I just wanted to check you hadn't got confused", and with a broad grin he executed a smart three point turn and drove back up to the junction before turning off. He'd been concerned enough to go out of his way to make sure I was going the right way.
