Hell lots of a tough and steep climbs today on this SS94 road which runs along side with the A3 highway.While SS94 road is winding with many ups and downs,the A3 highway looks more straight which was built across mountains and valleys,looks stunning from far.Not only the view is great,the wind too is blowing very strong and changes directions every now then,this makes pedalling hard and slow,at the same time you need some skillful handlings to keep the bike from falling,at one particular steep section,I finally raised the white flag to get down and push for about 100m.At this stage,my foods ration is almost runs dry,due to been wildcamping for the past few days,and whatsmore today is Sunday.Potenza is like a ghost town,really feel sad and disappointed when i rode past at around 2.30pm,there are supermarkets and shops but were all closed.Anyway,still have enough water and foods for tonight.Tomorrow, being Monday, finding foods never a problem.
