Gradara Castle

Highlight • Castle

30.07.2003 - Gradara is located in a picturesque corner behind Gabicce Mare and Cattolica. It was restored in the early 1900s. Gradara is definitely worth a visit together with the small picturesque village.

Solo outing to test if I can ride my bike without pain. Unfortunately the collarbone takes a lot of time to recover and not to strain it, I only did asphalt.
Vibrations are not good for you.
Spectacular temperature, sun and lots of people around both on foot and by bike.
Calmly without exaggerating I enjoyed it. The body would …

Solo outing. Only at the end did I meet friends of the group.
Little desire today I admit. Too bad because it was a wonderful day

Solo outing to regain confidence in myself and in the bike.
It is not an easy thing.
Today went well and on my own I can manage myself well.
Obviously little time available to do 27 km and about 750 D +
Uphill temp. Fantastic terrain on the San Bartolo.
Many paths that I remembered are blocked by logs.

Bike ride on Monte San Bartolo. Today the collarbone went soooo much better.
Let's say that I think about it even less and I defeat fear.
I was able to do some off-roading also because, on the San Bartolo there were some Bike BDC competitions and therefore everything was blocked.
I started late anyway and the heat was already at …

Crazy.
