Into the Mugello for day 3 with Pete and Gail.

With lots of pictures today, I will let the captions tell the story of today's ride.  It was another great day, day 3 with Pete and Gail.  We rode into the Mugello and had a wonderful day.  Here is the garmin link:

A stop on the way out of town at the piece of art that commemorates

the Mondiale (world championships) last year.

They loved the route from Alberaccio to Doccia, through Santa

Brigida.  Lots of "Wows" going on.  Here they are doing one of

the short but steep climbs on the way to Fornello from Santa Brigida.

I love the views on the way to Doccia, so while they stopped to

take more pictures, I snapped this one for myself.

On the way to the windmill (molino de vento) enjoying the 

beautiful, tiny roads.

We rode over to Dicomano after descending to Rufina, and this is the 

great little road between Dicomano and Sagginale.  Love this ride.

As we approached the base of the climb to Vetta ai Croci, I

caught Gail, then Pete in these action shots.

What a great third day riding together.  Tomorrow a long ride

to the South, my version of the classic Chianti tour.
