I'm in Cadiz too, would like someone to ride with on the road or the trail. Losing some weight would be good for me too. If that works for you, leave a message here and we'll figure out when we can meet. I've got a trek fx 7500 that's a few years old, I'm riding a C'dale R1000 now. I have a Merckx carbon frame and I plan to swap the Campy components from the C'dale to the Merckx frame. Also building a new bike with an IGH. Never tried one of those before.
