Is that common in Spain? I can't speak for orther states, but here in Pa.,
it is not. We have no grocery, no gas station, no doctor,
but we do have a couple of churches and a handful of bars.
And we have deer, turkey, and coyotes running through our yards!
And a lot of peace and quiet, and compared to larger places
we have no crime - unless someone stays at one of the bars too long.

Re: Maintenance tips for new bike

Yes, lots of little villages. We have all the amenities though. As for animals, it's mainly the herds of goats being driven between feeding grounds that holds up the traffic. Talking about animals, people think that these islands (The Canaries) were due to the canaries (birds) that abound here. Actually it was a corruption of the Latin word, canine, due to the early explorers coming across many packs of wild dogs. (lecture over )

No goats around here, unless you count my ex-wife and her mother! But sometimes the farmers down the road take cows across the road to a different pasture. I watched a family of deer behind my property this morning while having my coffee; great way to start the day.
