We had a day to explore a little bit, then it was\ntime to get on the bikes. Boy, was it tough dragging ourselves back into the\ncycling routine!! A fairly easy ride that we made into a mammoth task. It's\nsoooo hot here in comparison with Australia, we did suffer somewhat, and we've\nbeen bitten to death by the voracious Italian mozzies. Nevertheless, we\nmanaged to appreciate Italy a little bit on the way! Not a spectacular area,\nbut very pleasant, and are hearts are so happy to be back in characterful\nEurope.</p>\n<p>I'd been fretting about route planning before we arrived, and feeling\nfrustrated about how difficult it is to find bike paths even when you know\nthey exist. Ed is sick of my craziness, so has taken control of all things\nroute planning! As a result, we have treated ourselves to the worldwide\ncoverage with Komoot. £23 but hopefully well spent, based on reviews and\naccounts from others. Early days but we spent the majority of the day on\nlovely bike paths, so so far so good!</p>\n<p>As with Bologna, there's only one campsite in Ferrara. Fortunately it's a lot\ncheaper at 20.50 euros for two of us. Simple but good facilities, and a secure\nstorage room for the bikes if they'd like a cosy night.</p>\n<p><a href=\"https://www.strava.com/activities/1704612448\">https://www.strava.com/activities/1704612448</a></p>\n<p><span\n      class=\"gatsby-resp-image-wrapper\"\n      style=\"position: relative; display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;  max-width: 800px;\"\n    >\n      <a\n    class=\"gatsby-resp-image-link\"\n    href=\"/static/53267fac6b56171cd192087315f037b5/f9218/A03C0DA2-DA68-4E94-ABAD-339F87605237.jpg\"\n    style=\"display: block\"\n    target=\"_blank\"\n    rel=\"noopener\"\n  >\n    <span\n    class=\"gatsby-resp-image-background-image\"\n    style=\"padding-bottom: 75%; position: relative; bottom: 0; left: 0; background-image: url('data:image/jpeg;base64,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'); background-size: cover; display: block;\"\n  ></span>\n  <img\n        class=\"gatsby-resp-image-image\"\n        alt=\"A03C0DA2 DA68 4E94 ABAD 339F87605237\"\n        title=\"A03C0DA2 DA68 4E94 ABAD 339F87605237\"\n        src=\"/static/53267fac6b56171cd192087315f037b5/4b190/A03C0DA2-DA68-4E94-ABAD-339F87605237.jpg\"\n        srcset=\"/static/53267fac6b56171cd192087315f037b5/e07e9/A03C0DA2-DA68-4E94-ABAD-339F87605237.jpg 200w,\n/static/53267fac6b56171cd192087315f037b5/066f9/A03C0DA2-DA68-4E94-ABAD-339F87605237.jpg 400w,\n/static/53267fac6b56171cd192087315f037b5/4b190/A03C0DA2-DA68-4E94-ABAD-339F87605237.jpg 800w,\n/static/53267fac6b56171cd192087315f037b5/e5166/A03C0DA2-DA68-4E94-ABAD-339F87605237.jpg 1200w,\n/static/53267fac6b56171cd192087315f037b5/f9218/A03C0DA2-DA68-4E94-ABAD-339F87605237.jpg 1333w\"\n        sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"\n        style=\"width:100%;height:100%;margin:0;vertical-align:middle;position:absolute;top:0;left:0;\"\n        loading=\"lazy\"\n      />\n  </a>\n    </span></p>","frontmatter":{"date":null,"path":"/journal/174","title":""}}},"pageContext":{}}}
