February 25 :: Siena, Italy

February 25 :: Siena, Italy :: 0km / 154km total

Our first day off of our ride, and I think the group is glad for it. Liz and I saw most of what we had wanted to see in Siena yesterday, so it will be a very placid day for us. Dad and Kenton for sure will be on a breakneck sightseeing pace. The food in Italy continues to be very good, but very redundant, with very little variation from restaurant to restaurant. It is surprising with all the tourists from all over the world that there are no sushi bars, burger joints, Chinese or Indian restaurants. They all certainly would have our business!

Tomorrow's ride will be the longest of the trip, about 62km to Montalcino. We are starting extra early, braving the chilly morning air to give time so as not to have to rush it.

Hi Guys,
Good job, sounds like you're doing great.
You do know you're in Italy right? Did you really expect to find sushi bars?
