The first tour in the Val d'Orcia in southern Tuscany. From San Quirico d'Orcia it goes downhill at first; the typical cypresses quickly appear on the side of the road.
The climb to Pienza soon begins, including a section where you have to push your bike (ascent + scree).
The weather is wonderful; according

From Menaggio, you first take the ferry to Varenna and from there around the northern Lake Como back to Menaggio.
At the beginning, the route goes through a few tunnels. Later - on the west bank - the cycle path leads along the old road around the rocks, while cars and trucks also drive through tunnels

On the second day, we set off after breakfast in Zwolle. The weather is better than the day before, and it is even possible to take a short break in the sun.
However, it will rain again and again during the day - no problem with the right clothing, which I added the day before.

We set off in sunshine, but it was a bit damp along the way, although apart from a short shower it was more of a drizzle.
The GPS kept breaking down along the way, which meant that some of the sections were very straight.
I had to push the bike the last 1.5 kilometers to the hotel because I had a flat tire.

From Monticchiello we headed towards Montepulciano. Below the day's destination, we first follow a beautiful cypress avenue to the Tempio di San Biagio below Montepulciano. I'll visit this beautiful church at a later date - it's worth it.
So we continue up towards the town. There are lots of tourists
