One look at the elevations for today's ride was sufficient for me take a rest day accompanying Ozgur and Doug in the van with Edna on board til lunch at 70km.
Unfortunately, I am still fatigued from my sleep issues over the last 12 months and have not yet settled into an energising routine over here. But, I'm hopeful that I will increase my riding hours, and my sleeping hours, as the days progress. Despite my daily posts of pasta or cakes, I have actually lost a little weight and am getting fitter now that my back is not playing up as much.
I had a fun day with the crew and am happily ensconced in the lovely Hotel le Tourisme in Zonza which is full of cycling groups, large and small.
