"Stage Belorado- San Juan de Ortega, The Way of Saint James"(Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
10th stage: from Belorado to San Juan de Ortega
In Belorado pilgrims can drink water, like its predecessors used to, from a Medieval Fountain, and pray in the Chapel of Nuestra Señora de Belén, once a hospital.
San Roque´s Chapel also contains an altarpiece that originally belonged to the Abbey of San Francisco de Belorado.
In reply to your request, we are pleased to express the full satisfaction in our factory with the benefits obtained from the use of the "rb bertomeu" beco F2/A additive which we add to the fuel oil used (nº2) in our pirotubular boilers.
We authorise the use of this letter for reference purposes.
In addition to the already detected improvements regarding the reduction of fuel oil sludge, we would like to emphasise the following achievements observed and quantified during this period, regarding the conservation of the engine valves:

El Camino de Santiago entra en Belorado, villa de origen romano en la que está documentada la feria más antigua de toda España, por el Hospital de los Caballeros, convertido hoy en día en la ermita de Nuestra Señora de Belén.
El núcleo urbano de Belorado se distribuye a la sombra de las ruinas de lo que fue una importante fortaleza que formaba parte de la línea fronteriza del reino de Castilla.
Friday, 9th of June : from Belorado to Itero de la Vega
After a night in a good bed with sheets, and a large warm coffee in the bar by the side of the road, I leave Belorado at 7.30 am.
The road is fine, the sky is overcast, the weather forecast warned of rain, but it's difficult to go on : 3/4 h to cover the 10 km as far as Villafranca at the foot of the Montes de Oca.
