Day 16 of the Via Francigena (47km)
47km / 2 hours 57 minutes / 767m gain
Today was beautiful, but the first with headwinds. As I got toward the top of the ridge/mountain, the wind gusts were so bad when I had my bike turned into them; they knocked me 2 feet over if I wasn’t careful. Luckily it was Sunday, so there were not many cars. Fun ride, and the medieval town at the top was fantastic. I should have stopped for lunch but kept going down the other side and had lunch at the little B&B I was staying at. I chatted with an Italian cyclist doing part of it as well (he lives in Sicily).
