Yesterday morning I got up at 05.30, having breakfast and packing my stuff up seems to take ages so I was on the road at 07.00. I put my blinkers on and rode north eventually I arrived at a campsite at about 16.30 and cruised in. Tent up in the shade, washed clothes I didn’t get to the pool. A quick noodle meal and into bed. Surprisingly I slept quite well.
Thus time I woke at 05.00 but I decided to reconfigure my packing a bit and of course thus took longer so left at 06.40. Yesterday evening I organised a route to circumnavigate Barcelona. Unfortunately this morning I pressed the route to Barcelona. Madness.
Then I got close to Girona and aimed for a campsite, unfortunately it was closed and there are no others around so I wimped and booked a B & B.
Both days I rode quite consistently. I halve very little organisation of eating patterns. Every so often I feel hungry… I eat. Simple
I have discovered on my Garmin a reminder to drink. I set it for every 5kms. The Garmin just flicks a message up. ‘5km Drink’ I am pretty crap at remembering to drink so this is fantastic.
From my routing I am sure you have deduced that I have not taken a bus (we know that was never a realistic option), I have not taken a boat although I would have liked that. But I am riding he’ll for leather to Florence. Let’s see how fast I can do it. 😀😎
