Our next two-night stay was in the slightly larger town of Sansepolcro, for Saturday & Sunday night. For our loop ride yesterday, we rode out and around a lovely little reservoir just to the north of town, called Lago artificiale di Montedoglio. It was yet another 25+ mile ride, with about 1000 ft of elevation gain. Here are the obligatory photos:

We rode into Umbria today, the official start of our second week of riding. The destination was Montone, which …wait for it… was on top of a hill with another big climb to get here! The worst part was that the temp topped 90º, and we’re just not used to heat like that yet. Anyway, I’ll report more on that ride, and the splendid little town of Montone, tomorrow…
