Back roads


Our final day of cycling took us along small back roads such as the one pictured. We worked our way to the eastern most point of Italy with Croatia, Albania and Greece coast lines not far away though not visible with hazy conditions. Our ride also took us along the sea shore but became very challenging as the road rose up many hills which finally became too much for me and I opted for a ride in the support van for the last few miles. Other highlights of the day were a very tasty picnic lunch over looking the sea and a visit to a private home to see a demonstration of hand made pasta as it has been done done for generations.
