Back in the nature 641 km - Day 9

-

Two days from reaching the goal 

Tomorrow I should be by Turin, and that would be the last night of the trip. Now, I'm wildcamping by the river Po, enjoying the nature and the calmness.

Not all roads are meant to be ridden

There has been many times where I had to walk for a while along with the bike. This time the grass was too high, I didn't mind, instead I enjoy those walks a lot, everything is even more slower, mindful and effortless.

The Great Escape from Montebelluna  I woke up around 7 am, the rain still like the day before but this time some unwelcome guest joined the party: Wind. Breakfast at the hotel was descent but it didn't meet my quota of calories needed for challenging these two (rain+wind=low temperature). The gentleman at the front desk looked at me like " why do you do this to yourself? " , he couldn't resist to ask: - this is sport or pleasure?- - Na! Just a dream of mine. - But I should've say " I don't know dude, I'm just a masochist".  Around 9 am I was back under the water, the Bikemap app, as usual, keep on giving me errors, I had to stop every once in a while, reset the program, check if I still was on the path, plus deal the water falling on the waterproof screen protector and not responding to my finger touch. But finally I found a way to make it work,  Ah Domenica! Of course, Sunday. Nothing is open to stop and eat, but the markets ...

Wild camping close to Moscona   Too tired to write about  Too many things so say, but too tired to concentrate and develop a story. All I can say that today was a beautiful day, not so cold nor so hot, I rode most in the country side, some difficult off-roads but they are better that busy streets full of trucks and unfriendly drivers. Tomorrow the bad weather is back so I reserved a room, most likely I'm gonna get wet again. That's all for today folks! Good night.

Greetings and welcome to my blog! Für diejenigen, die Deutsch sprechen, ist eine Übersetzung verfügbar. Klicken Sie auf das "Burger-Symbol" und wählen Sie "Sprachübersetzung" aus. Going for a long ride was always a dream of mine, now based on the circumstances and right timing, and the support of loved ones, I'm gonna go for a ride. The idea of this trip is to surprise and visit my parents crossing the vast majority of north Italy, approximately 700 Kilometers - 435 miles. My mom just bought a bicycle as well and she is willing to try again to learn how to ride it (she never ride one without a wheel support). I have no previous experience riding such long distances, but it sounds appealing to learning on the road and adapting to the situation up front.  Let's get ready, and ride.
