Ronda is a spectacular place, I'm not familiar with this particular route but it was done over 3 days.
Are you set on Malaga? There are cheap flights to many Spanish destinations atm, Alicante has good riding north towards Alcoy and Albacete. My local airport is Reus with great riding within 10km

Did you ride this Rich?
Myself and the boss are off to Marbella to do some construction jobs on her uncles house so we're throwing the bikes in and hoping to get out for a few days. It looks good but any information regarding camping etc would be appreciated.

Just thought I'd update this post. If you are ever around this area and thinking of riding this route then I'd not hesitate. Its brilliant, really varied terrain, great camping, easy resupply. Just brilliant. Its definitely to be ridden clockwise and says 3 days relaxed riding, which it definitely isn't. There's a two hour push through an overgrown path and lots of punchy climbs. Also there's loads of scope to extend the riding north. If anyone wants anymore info then pm me.
