Sun. Wind. Beach. Bike ride.
Note to the people on site 43. You may have put off-road tyres on your habitable towing accessory. And raised its suspension. And put a number on the door of your vehicle. But listen carefully. You are still caravanners.
Wednesday 19 May Cagliari
Cagliari was great, but we didn't see Gianfranco Zola relaxing in a local bar, so ultimately the day must be deemed a failure.

Mountainbike ride in Sardinia: on paper, an easy to navigate, demarcated circuit. A 2 hour trip to the top of a mountain where the path continued on the map. However,the topographical reality was an abrupt end necessitating a degree of orienteering spontaneity. The return journey took on a varied hue. The stage was a thunderstorm, the plot involved wading across a river, climbing over fences and following what looked like tractor tracks in the hope they led to civilisation.
Which they did, with no great drama.
The ferry is booked for tomorrow, taking us off this storm battered isle. We shall shake the sodden dust of Sardinia from our sandals.

Hmm...sounds like a ride I had in Dartmoor once...poor map, no compass and yes, following human made tracks in the hope of getting somewhere!
ReplyDeleteNot a soul did I see for 2 hours, mind you it was raining for a lot of that!
