Super nice idea from the villagers. I've sat here many times and taken great selfies with her and my friends, so a short stop is always worthwhile!

A good road to cycle on (even if it's "only" gravel). The views of the vineyards and the places to stop for refreshments more than compensate for the elevation gain ;-) The latter was manageable, though.
