Today was our last transit day. Tomorrow is either a loop from Matera, or forget about biking altogether. I'm leaning towards the latter.
It was a little cool when we started, but it warmed up to 20 °C as the day wore on. It wasn't too windy either.
We had two climbs today: the first shortly after leaving Alberobello, and the second as we got into Matera. The latter was rather steep and there was a lot of traffic. At least the road was wide for the climb.
Today's ride was mostly through the countryside, past farms. It was hilly from Alberobello to Gioia del Colle, then mostly flat until we approached Metera. There wasn't much traffic until we turned onto the SS7. It has one of those wonky "priority" route signs you see in Europe. Don't ask me what that means.
