Athens in Rush Hour

7.40am boat is ridiculous 🤦 but we got up at 6am packed and got onto the hydrofoil.

60 minutes later we were getting onto the pier at Pireas. Road after road clogged with cars and lorries puffing out fumes, enough to kill any cyclist. We were surprised to see a few other cyclists put in the commute. Following the route on my GPS soon got us out to the other side of Athens. Despite our early start and the timings of other ferries, we were forced 😉 to have a short day. The hotel in Marathon was one I had stayed at before.

Not too shabby for bike packers.
