Rainy morning afternoon ride
We woke up this morning to serious rain that had started last night and carried on into the morning. I contemplated taking the train to Brescia but to do it justice I would need the whole day and there was a ride in the afternoon once the rain stopped. Instead, I was a very good girl and went to the gym at the hotel. I worked out for 1 hour and 20 minutes with 50 minutes of stretching which for me is a world record 😇.
The sun came out this afternoon so we had a lovely casual ride south of the lake in the countryside, so a lot less traffic. We had 4 new arrivals from the eastern townships join us but I must say I fear for their safety. They all can ride a bike but they have no concept of how to cycle especially in a group in traffic. If one of them does not crash and be injured while here I will be shocked. They were all over road, failed to pass on signals, passed fellow riders without any warning, and just blindly followed the guides through intersections without even looking. I plan to stay well away from them.
