March 30 - to Gundy

Today was to be an easy day, almost like a quasi rest day.  It was to be 80 kilometers with only 700 meters of climbing.  But as most said by day's end... What a tough easy day!!!

It turned out to be 85 kilometers with 1,100 meters of climbing.  A soft day in comparison to others but it did have an arduous feel to it.

But once again a great route through gorgeous country with sites to be remembered.

    The road was paved but a bit rough in sections.

    The rolling hills of grass dotted with trees.

At times though, we would be barreling down the hills and come upon a commanding traffic sign.  One that obviously needs to be ignored...

    Who would ever obey such a sign on a bike!?

    You can see the clouds that have become stuck on the peaks of the mountains in the distance.

    Came upon this very unique set of mountain cliffs.  They had caves and holes that dotted its face.  Stunning...

    This mountain peak had its summit shrouded in a cloud.  It reminded me of a volcano in Central America, mount Arnal.

And to end a great cycling day you need to have dinner in a pub.  So we went to the only pub in Gundy and had a great time and a great dinner.  And to crown the glorious day we were treated to this:

    An amazing sunset to cap off the amazing day.
