Day five ride

In one word, perfect!
We set out from Greve around 9:30 and the climb began immediately. However it was perfect conditions with just the right temperature and so the 7k climb felt easy. Lots of cyclists out for a Saturday spin.

Goodbye to Chianti

Down the other side and into a foggy patch which in the forested hills made it very attractive. 



When we reached the area of S. Giovanni val dArno we stopped for coffee. The route after that was undulating with some steep pinches.

Piazza at Latetina alta

We had lunch at Laterina and then the route was flatter through to Arezzo.
Magic day of 64k and nearly 1000m of climb.

The evening in Arezzo was used for a little exploring and then probably the most disappointing meal of the entire trip, even though the restaurant was well rated on Trip Advisor.
