Unpaved Tuscany UPT1901
Riding Academy The day starts with refreshing rain, but that doesn't stop the smiles on these warriors' faces. We do a short ride down to the training ground and begin our day with some exercises, it's all about weight balance! The afternoon takes us through some beautiful roads and amazing forests up in the mountains before returning to Barga for a well deserved dinner.
Barga - Viano As expected, a bit of rain to come our way and a long day to see plenty of things. First stop, Grotta del Vento, or cave of wind. Very cool cave formation used as a fridge back in the day.
Viano - Loiano After a couple of hard days between the riding academy and the first ride through into Emilia Romagna, we continue through this beautiful region of Italy, the longest straight might just be 50m long as Mickey well mentioned!
Loiano - Santa Sophia Day rises with more rain, but high spirits. We're looking forward to our ride as it is full of unpaved sections. Some fog here and a temporary river there don't stop us from having a great ride.
Santa Sophia - Barga After a long week riding through Tuscany and Emilia Romagna we cone to our last day. Two groups would leave with both guides to get to see some beautiful scenery. This region has so much to offer. Some went up to Passo Muraglione to enjoy a coffe in one of Pablo's favourite places.
