Day 57 - Korcula Island, Croatia

Today we woke up and had breakfast on the boat, we had been told to be ready to start riding for 9am sharp as this is our biggest riding day.

We rode out of Korcula township and after 3km we were on our first uphill climb… 10km uphill to be exact! Katie was off on her E-bike, I was somewhere in the middle grinding it out!
Once the uphill was over we were treated to a lovely downhill with coastal views.

Along the way we made our way inland where grapes and figs were in the fields with rolling hills, we closed in on the seaside again and lunch was fast approaching.

We stopped at Beach Prispcapac for lunch where there was a cafe with a beach there. We shared some bruschetta and a pizza then had a swim. After lunch we had another 6% uphill to tackle for roughly 4km. Again Katie was off with her e-bike, I was in the middle grinding the uphill with the sun beating down on me, once up the top we had a lovely uphill that the guide let me overtake her and roll down the hill at some speed!

We had 7km left once at the bottom so we hustled to the boat from there.
Once at the boat we had a drink with others from the boat - 2euro gin & tonics!

Tonight dinner was on the boat and after dinner Katie and I went for a walk to help my legs from the ride.Read more
