Thursday 2 July 2026: WattBike Ride on ROUVY Sicily 🇮🇹 Route

A good WattBike workout on a nice ROUVY route in Sicily. Reminded me of the last time I was in Sicily on a conference where Mount Etna volcano erupted and molten ash was everywhere and we had to get back to mainland Italy by road and ferry rather than our flight
