We were riding by 7:45, another warm day. We chose the longer of the two routes which went through Grado. A very long bridge with a dedicated bike path.


Only a little better than riding on gravel, this path was rutted with potholes.

In Monfalcone, we passed by a fish market with a side business of seafood dishes. Barbara shared her big pot of mussels which were actually very good. I’ve never had mussels before. The view from our picnic table:

There was a steady climb which isn’t a problem on an ebike. Beautiful views of the Adriatic Sea.


Looking back after going through the tunnel:


No beaches along this part of the coast but sunbathers found the next best choice.


Our end point for the day is always the town square. Then we switch maps to find our hotel.
