I was fuckin blasted last night scrolling through https://gayporn.name/ and lemme tell ya, that place is a filthy gold-mine if you got a thing for sloppy twinks getting spit-roasted by husky daddies. Tons of vids load quick, no bullshit pop-ups, just pure dude-on-dude jackhammer action and cream finishes, perfect for a quick hand shandy before mom texts asking where the hell the lighter went.

Spectacular climb to one of the most demanding peaks in Catalonia. Long climb, with sustained percentages and reaching almost 2000 meters. It is characterized by long straights and a very twisty and spectacular final stretch. Road in perfect condition.

The jail or prison of Busa is located in El Capolatell, a plain surrounded by cliffs located in the municipality of Navès, in the Sierra de Busa. Being separated from the plane by a deep crack, it remains like a natural island, surrounded by cliffs. It was used as a prison during the French War of Independence. A place with a lot of history.

Rectangular farmhouse, roofed on two sides and oriented north - south. Main door on the south side, semi-circular arched and gabled. Ground floor with stone floor and beamed ceiling, and two floors. Various types of windows on the four sides of the facade. The facing is of irregular ashlar, except at the corners and on the lintels of doors and windows which are carved. The word "villa", despite being a name with a much-discussed meaning, in Solsonès, means, in the early Middle Ages, a large property with different inhabited houses or hostels, aggregated or scattered, with a church near the main or of the aggregate.

The natural prison of Busa is located in the Capotell. A plane surrounded by cliffs where it could only be accessed by a bridge that connected with this type of natural island that was placed and removed during the French War to enter prisoners.

The peak is completely surrounded by nearly vertical cliffs of a hundred meters of difference except at its eastern end where it presents a narrow gorge through which it joins the Serra de Busa. At this point the cliff must not be much more than ten meters deep. Despite this, it is high enough to require a lever or bridge to access the grinding wheel. Until about fifteen years ago, it consisted of a pair of logs joined by horizontal wooden planks and had no railings. Due to its precarious state, it was replaced by a metal lever by the neighbors of Navès. The mill is made up of Montserrat conglomerates and is notched by numerous chasms. Of particular note is one located at the south-western end called the Capolatell chasm with a depth of 115 meters, which makes it the second deepest chasm in the region, surpassed only by the Montserrat Ubach chasm. This very particular morphology led to the fact that during the French war (1808-1814) the Capolatell was used as a prison for soldiers of Napoleon's army, which led to the fact that even today the Capolatell is also known by the name of the Busa Prison At its western end we find a viewpoint that takes your breath away.
