Yesterday’s ride was yet another 25+ mile ride with about 1000 ft of elevation gain. It’s starting to feel a bit like Groundhog Day around here, though not really, because each day’s ride is so uniquely great. (Spoiler alert: we’ve got longer rides ahead too!)
Anyway, Here’s a couple of shots I took as we were leaving Sansepolcro…
Fortunately, since it’s been so hot, we were glad to have a little overcast at the beginning of the ride. More pics from along the way…
Città di Castello is the home town of our Italian guide, Giovanni, so we sent him a selfie from the square to give him a smile.
Once again, the ride finished up with a fairly grueling climb (especially due to the heat), up to the hill town of Montone. Some photos of that last part of the ride…
Once again, we found our hotel (which had a pool!) showered, rested up, then explored and had a lovely dinner out. I’ll close this post with a few more pics from our evening’s explorations (since, as you may have guessed, we have much better internet here in Assisi tonight). More about the ride from Montone to Assisi tomorrow, since we’ve got two nights here!
