Heroic Tuscany
june 2021
Chianti, Val d'Orcia, the Crete Senesi, on the roads of the "heroic".
5 days on dirt roads and paths, by ebike to reach the most fascinating places in the Tuscan hills: San Galgano, Sant'Antimo, Montalcino, Bagno Vignoni, Castenuovo Berardenga, Chianti in Gaiole, Radda, Monteriggioni and of course Siena.
Traditions, identity, good wine in characteristic locations and the typical dishes that have made Tuscany famous, all packaged in its landscape.
Colors, scents and taste !!
Heroic? it does not refer to the vintage event. Is racing on Bartali's dirt roads heroic? Not even.
It is the emotion that Tuscany offers by bicycle that makes the journey such.
Arrive at the hotel and remove the dust with a swim in the pool, perhaps with a good glass of wine, a dinner in the warm colors of the sunset, tasting in ancient cellars,
... all this is just emotion!
