The Arrentrankos is interesting to watch.  Homemade, Carnival carts and vehicles and people in fancy dress propel themselves down Virgen de la Peña and then turn into Lyon and Castillo and then head down past the 3 bums roundabout to the finish.

Sounds pretty awesome. Hope it takes less than a couple of hours so everyone will be able to attend the Caleta de Fuste Carnival at 2PM.
