Day 4 of the Via Francigena (68km)

October11

68km / 3 hours 28 minutes / 74m gain

The day started with heavy rain; luckily, it only lasted a few hours. It was cold, though, and I felt a lot better after I switched to thermal gloves and fleece. It is amazing how nice it is to have your hands feel warm on a cold wet day, really helps you mentally.

Breakfast at the hotel was only a croissant. I stopped at a cemetery to eat the least of my bread and my last can of tuna. Luckily I found a really great bakery and had some amazing focaccia, among other things.

Only a few pictures today as it was rainy most of the time. But, you do get to see my amazing lunch :)

Tomorrow is another long day with how hotels fell. But, it is a very flat ride, and still only 70km which should be good.

This is bwb’s personal blog, so he can share his thoughts with the world, however scary or silly they might be. Plus family and friends can track what I am up to, and where I am in the world.

I am pretty simple. I love Mangos. I love the ocean (although mostly at sunset, as I’m a ginger). I love to travel, eat exotic food, do long bike rides, read, and use my imagination. At some point, I decided it was better to be a pirate captain than an admiral. I am a globalist and see the entire world as my responsibility and playground. And I am married to an amazing woman who makes life even more fun :)! And we are now the proud parents of Calico Jack :).
