Day 13 Bellagio to Varese

58 Miles, 5,200'

Trip Totals:

721 Miles, 79,000' Climbing, 0.000" Rain, 0 Flats, 0 Mechanicals

Started out our last day up a steep climb to the Madonna del Ghisallo, a tiny church filled with historical bicycle stuff:


The road up and down was filled with cyclists making the climb on a Sunday morning. It was already warm, and very humid as it has been the last 3 days; we were soaking wet by the time we reached the top.

After desceding back to Bellagio, we hopped on the ferry to cross the lake and continue the ride:


The rest of the day was riding around lakes, a wrong turn that took Tom and I over an extra climb, and some tricky navigation to our hotel on the outskirts of Milan, where the Garmin did it's job (http://app.strava.com/rides/19020457). And we're done, just like that. Excellent tour!
