San Gimignano and the strada Chiantigiana

As the day begins the dark stormy clouds from the previous days daym to give us a rest so we can enjoy the ride. Sunny and hot dor most of the day, untila light rain that gives us the opportunity to enjoy Piazzale Michelangelo to ourselves.

Off on our second day we go towards the north, the more mountainous and curvy area of the region, to the race tracks, new and old, with a lucky visit to the paddocks as they were open. What a lush day for riding!

Tiday we retake the starda Chiantigiana all the way to Siena and on our way back we get to visit the old town of Rada for a walk and a well deserved coffee.

A very narrow street takes us up to an overlook of Florence and straight towards the Consuma Pass. The highest pass of the tour. From there, the road takes us to Arezzo for a quick visit of the town. A town, known for it's jewelers, making up to a third of Italy's produxe!
