I was going to do some big miles today but as the heat built up it got to around 2pm and I thought I think I’ll stop.I left my beautiful campsite by the lake early but interestingly I didn’t hear my alarm.A transition day between the Tuscany Trail and the Appia way. I was aiming for Ostia on the coast. I did stand on one of the 7 hills of Rome looking down at traffic and mayhem and thought I am not going there. So Ostia it was. Practically all downhill and I made the 50km in red hot time. I stopped for double coffee and cake then moved on.The next town enticed me to a celebration of pizza
I have had very little electricity on all my phone, Garmin and my battery so took minimum photos. But it was just after my pizza that I thought about stopping. Jumped into a campsite and read my book.Also my Garmin has stopped talking to my phone and as a consequence it us not syncing with Strava. I have tried a multitude some solutions but to no avail.
SoYesterday.
123 kms. 6.15hrs 1183m of elevation
Today.
124kms 5.27 hrs 400m of elevation

Oops fat finger accidental send. 😉. All the parts were transferred and the new frame is fantastic.
It was cooler when I was further north. Now it’s getting hotter again. But Italy is beautiful, the roads/traffic better than France worse than Spain. People are lovely.
Day off today tomorrow up into some mountains.
Hope all is good with you. 🙂
