Well in some ways the cycle tour ended because we have been spending a week in a very nice villa in the Piemonte village of AglianoTerme. After our cycling in Le Marche and our beach visit at Sirolo, we caught a train a long way north and west to Piemonte. We got off at Casteggio then cycled to Agliano (about 100km).
Our house is pretty deluxe. It's a restored old farmhouse run by an English/Norwegian couple. It has a pool too! We've been chillaxing here, going to local markets, cooking, eating and then blobbing by the pool in the afternoons. It's been very relaxing!

On Sunday, we went to a local vineyard for a tasting. Piemonte is famous for many wines but the region we're in is especially famous for Barbera. We went to Villa Terlina and did some tasting and a tour. The wine was nice!

Tomorrow we cycle to Asti then onto Castellero. On Sunday, we have to get back to Milan so that Bri and Noah can catch their flight back home :(
