January 3, 2022,dal Binda bar al Novecento bar

We started from the Binda Bar to reach, 30 km further on, the Novecento bar in Sesto Calende.
But it was worth it, in fact there, at the Novecento bar, we tasted sandwiches, stuffed, made with pizza dough: delicious.
All accompanied with a glass of dolcetto.
Then I return, always on the cycle path, with the sun peeking out timidly. …

New friends join the trip with a swim 🏊‍♀️🙂. I intercept Marco at the meeting point in Tornavento and we head to Sesto Calende for a coffee☕ following the canal and Ticino.
On the way back we stop at the beautiful fogadore beach where Cristina joins us and off to take a nice regenerating swim and enjoy an ice cream🍨😋
