Today marks actually 1 month of our cycling adventure since started in Paris on 12 May.The weather have so far been kind to us on the past few days.Ivan/Annie have grown stronger each day and so far no problems on their bikes.As for me,generally ok except for occasionally toothache,and the recumbent bike has one puncture at the front tire,plus some minor adjustments here and there.Today's ride on a very hot day with countless small rolling hills,and on one of the downhill stretch,I acheieved a personal best of 71 kmh. We are always on route SR2 which will go all the way down to Rome.Most shops we passed were closed as it was a Sunday,but we managed to buy some foods in the incoop supermarket,just in time before it closed at 1 pm. The effect of pedalling up down up down really tiring as I am carrying more weight than Ivan/Annie.When we finally reached the camping in Siena,it was already 5 pm. The cost is 9.5 euro per person and 5.7 euro per tent with a 10% discount, thats comes out to 13.7 euro for me.Camping in Italy is double the price compared to France.
