The Heart of Italy, 4IT1601

Day 6, riding Urbino - Firenze Last riding day of this great tour, today we had to go back to Florence... but we managed to reach our final destination only after many many many curves! Our first stop was in San Leo, a pretty medieval town, where the tour guides had organized also a beautiful surprise: a historical cars meeting! :) Riding through the hills of this region was sometimes not too easy, some roads a little bumpy and not perfectly paved, but the sceneries were really worth it! And, to finish the day and the tour, we rode the Muraglione pass, one of the most "legendary" roads for italian motorcyclists! Good bye everybody, it was a pleasure meeting you and riding with you!!! Ride safe!!! Day 5, rest day ride Urbino - San Marino - Tavullia Another beautiful ride was awaiting us today! We left our hotel and rode through the enchanting Montefeltro area until we reached San Marino, one of the smallest states in the world. A nice coffee break and we were ready to reach the Adriatic coast for a very good lunch by the sea, before hitting the "Strada Panoramica", playground of many famous motorcyclists... such as Valentino Rossi! And well, being here, we could not miss a visit to Tavullia, hometown of the Doctor... to taste the famous Cappuccino 46!   Day 4, riding Perugia - Urbino Looking at the sky this morning, we were really thinking about changing the route: too many curves for a rainy day! But then we decided to postpone the decision: let's reach Cortona and then we'll see! And well, what a beautiful riding day, we did not have to change route and we could enjoy hundreds of curves, until we reached the gorgeous historical town of Urbino where we are going to spend the next two nights! Day 3, rest day ride Perugia - Orvieto - Assisi No packing today, a beautiful loop from Perugia to Orvieto and Assisi was waiting for us! Leaving Perugia, we reached Orvieto to admire its magnificent gothic Cathedral, and then after lunch our bikes took us to Assisi, birthplace of St.Francis and Unesco World Heritage Site. Back in Perugia, time to relax a bit... and then pizza time! Day 2, riding Firenze - Perugia Leaving Firenze on a working day was not really an easy task, but a few curves after Piazzale Michelangelo we found ourselves riding in the enchanting Chianti area, with its enchanting hills covered with olive trees and vines. These roads were made thinking about motorcycles, no doubts! After a nice break in Greve, we reached Siena for lunch and then finally headed to Perugia where we are going to spend the next two nights!   Day one, arrival in Firenze During the night, our bikes made it to the hotel! So, while Donna, Ken and Domenico went for a nice walk through Florence, the poor Ramon had to prepare everything for the welcome briefing and the motorcycle handover. Thank you Ramon, well done!
