The (Virtual) Peripatetic Pensioner - Stage 71 of the "Tour de Rellies" - San Remo to Albisola Superiore

 Maps from Google Maps and all images from Street View.

116.9 km -  103 km  =  13.9 km (banked)

Note:  This was a particularly mountainous ride.  Now that I am in Italy, Google Maps no longer provides bicycle routes, so I will mostly switch to walking routes, which are given and do not involve unrealistically riding on major motorways.
