are doing about a 50 mile ride with a lot of climbing we’re going up 600 m in one climb I think um and we’re going to try and catch the pros on summer stage 13 but just how the group’s doing how fast we’re going so if we don’t catch them we’re going to have a lovely day in Italy so we can’t complain full sun today so bit chilly up here though it is a bit windy up here just on the way down to breakfast and just to give you a bit of om to this hotel it feels like gone back in time but it’s very you know Posh back in time this I think it’s a molis pulled out of the sea and that music that’s
