A very fun and cruisy ride with C-Bass, revy, Big Fish and Uni to Alghero. The climbing felt easier today and we had some really fun downhills. Everyone rode great. We hooked up with CO, Seani and Kevin for a pizza lunch with only 45km to go. The last section was along the cost with amazing views. The evening was finished off by a great birthday meal for CO.

Today was an active rest day where we hiked down to a beach and enjoyed the clear water. I opted for the shortest version as my cold had me feeling pretty rough. The best would probably have been to stay at the hotel, but that just didn't seem fun enough.

Another spectacular ride. It just keeps on being beautiful!

Another glorious day. Bart had set up a very senic route which had us riding through a different valley that the previous ride. I took it easy on all the climbs to save some legs for a longer ride tomorrow. I also woke up with a bit of a head cold and didn't have as much energy as usual. Hopefully I can kick it over night.

Even though today was a little shorter with a bit less elevation gain than yesterday, it felt harder. The hills were steeper and I pushed a little harder on the first climb. Maybe too hard as I struggeled with the last 400m of climbing towards the end of the day. The first climb went up this awesome narrow road with no cars in sight. Super cool. We rode down to the sea for lunch and then back up into the hills where our hotel is. Not many photos taken today and it was hard to even think about that when the riding was hard. Great day.

Amazing climbing on this ride from Mandas to Villagrande (Sardinia). In fact there was no flat sections at all. We were either going up or down. Everyone rode really well. We kind of hammered the last climb and I was trying to stay with Bart, but didn't quite manage to. Mike caught up with me just as we were finishing at the top. Big fun! I kind of bonked at the end. Ther weren't as many places to grab snacks along the way as there were in Riciione, but the roads made up for it. They were in very good condition and with minimal traffic.

The only downside to the day is that I broke my camera. I kept it in my bentobox and I think it must have succumbed to the vibration or something. I'm quite bummed as it is my good camera and now I have to figure something out before going to Tahiti.

Yay, my camera wasn't broken after all!! There was something wrong with the battery.

Yay, ourbikes arrived this afternoon and we took them out for a short shakedown ride. It felt so amazing to ride in shorts and t-shirt!
