Monday 4.45am: All packed and its all going too well - the bikes have been dismantled and packed in their bags and the panniers are not full to bursting as they usually are.
Martin has no doubt forgotten something.
12.45pm: Bilbao and strangely everything going according to plan.
Bikes OK - Martin has even found something he is halfway good at - opening the hotel room door which could prove invaluable later on.
4pm the guggenheim is closed on Mondays but the bars aren't. It is too hot to walk and Martin asleep already in a bar outside Athletico Bilbao football stadium.
