When we looked at the profile of our ride today we thought we were in for a hard time, but the reality was we rode an easy 5% climb out of/Napflion, across the peninsula, mountains rising on each side. Eventually hitting the coast road at Epidavros. After a bit of searching we found the mini amphitheatre. Then to join back to our route we were rewardes with a kilometer of 15 – 20% gradients 🥵 we were mightily puffing after those.
The road turned south a long, winding, undulating piece of georgeous asphalt. The oleander bushes grow high on the sea side of the road obscuring the view a bit. Some graffiti daubed on the inside concrete barrier 😪. Parts of this road reminded me of the Amalfi coast. The views really were to die for.
We consumed a massive lunch, bought our boat ticket to Pireas, then cruised our way to the hotel.
