Very excited about the Racing game - best pre-game spots?

I was religiously opening the website to get dibs on tickets and managed to snag a couple woop

Where are the best spots to soak up some atmosphere before the game, I've seen a lot of the ultras go to the stadium around 4 to sing and see the bus arrive and we'll go for that no doubt, but any bar recomendations?

ale ale!

Strava is doing my head in. Been a member since 2015.

It's always been like this but so many posts seem to come with an explanation: why the pace wasn’t faster, what went wrong, why it wasn’t a “proper” effort. Marking that you were with a dog or that you were with a slower friend or that it was easy. It's annoying asf. It feels like a symptom of comparison. Pretty obvious statement but it's annoying me atm. Why does no one or almost no one focus on the positive? It's really negative

We know people look at our own stats because we do it ourselves. Sure not everyone but people do it for sure. So we end up making excuses for people who don't care. Or running way faster paces than should be the aim

Maybe more of us should make Strava private by default and only share the runs that are interesting, meaningful or genuinely positive. You can grind away without fear of nosy knobbers

Easy runs, strength training, yoga and recovery sessions don’t need an audience. Also it's pure spam . Who tf gives kudos on a gym session? It screams brown-nosing or creeping. Maybe if we stopped posting everything, we’d do those things more properly, stop filling everyone’s feed and enjoy using our bodies again.

I made my Strava private as default two months ago when I started working with a coach. Since then, I’ve made huge improvements in my health, fitness, pace and mental wellbeing. Less performing for an audience that don't really care about you or development, or they only care to stack themselves up against you or only care so that you give them kudos yourself. Or they want a follow so their kudos stack up. So dumb.

Strava is feeling like it's really entering into a massive enshi**ification stage. The beginning of the end

Whatever .....just a thought that I've had lately

I have my Malaguista membership and I'm ready to get tickets to the Racing game when they go on sale (I hope!). I think the craziest section is Fonda Sur, which I don't think I can get tickets for, but which would be the best section for me and my friend to get tickets for to have the best atmosphere for that game? Curva Baja Sur 118? Or which one?

I have a Malaguista membership and I'm ready to buy tickets to the game against Racing when they go on sale (I hope!). I think the section for the ultras is Fonda Sur. I suppose it won't be possible to buy tickets in that area, but I want to have tickets in the most fun, loudest section, with chants, etc. Which section is better after Fonda Sur? Is it Curva Baja Sur 118? Or which one?

Sorry for my Spanish, I don't have a Spanish keyboard, and I need more practice! oh crazy it translated my Spanish into English lol
