Da ich ja gestern den Grundstein für eine Wanderung (Mit Rad oder zu Fuß) auf dem "Braunschweiger Jakobsweg" in Magdeburg gelegt habe, verlinke ich hier nochmal auf meine erste große Wanderung. Via Francigena von Lausanne nach Rom, wo ich meine Freundin bei ihrer ersten Recherchewanderung im Abschnitt von Lucca nach Siena begleitet habe. Der Wanderführer geht gerade in die 5. Auflage.

Camino de Santiago map and statue at Poble Espanyol in Barcelona.

I’m doing #ViaFrancigena myself but it was weirdly comforting seeing this unexpectedly.

Sutri - Formello - Rome. Last leg of my tour, and Lazio showed its best side today. A wobderful 75kms/900alt.m. ride through wonderful terrain concludes my journey for now.

A bit sore after the fall yesterday, but the legs are ok. I'll take it easy for a couple of days, and then we will see.

Ponte Milvio, a spot that gathers conflict

Cicero intercepted messages from Catilina here, uncovering the Catiline attempt at an coup d'etat. This was around the same time Marius and Julius was around. Catilines other claim to fame is boinking/raping a vestal virgin. Take care of your epitaph...

This bridge is also where Constantine asked his soldiers to paint a cross on their shields, pitching the western world into christianity.

Today it is known as a spot where football hooligans make trouble.

What is it about this bridge...

Detour to Ferentum today. Couldn't get back to the via Francigena afterwards because of a solar panel farm that was in the middle of the old farm road i planned to use, but never mind. I got a good gawk at old roman ruins together with the local cats, who were really ready for a good cuddle.

After walking for eight days on the Via Francigena nel Sud we're taking a rest day in Fondi, so nothing fresh for #FootpathFriday. Here’s one from yesterday, on a section of the Appian Way between Terracina and Fondi.

Radicofani - Bolsena. Wonderful ride today. Started early in freezing remperatures, ended at 30 degrees. Fun ride because I rode from gravel, through clay hills, then volcanic tufa, then ended at Lago Bolsena, a volcanic crater. Something went boom here in a major way sometime in the past.

I am now longer in Tuscany. Crossed the border to Lazio, and Rome is getting closer.

Frustrating ride because I also ended up with a flat because of a thorn. L'Angolo del Biker in Bolsena refilled my tube allowance and also gave me a gear tuneup on the go. Awesome guy!

Now I am going to pig out on fish because inland Tuscany is all meat, and I have cravings.
