After a while I finally rided a real tough tour. Weather was great even if it was the first time since a while that I weared more than a T-Shirt. But air was fresh and the sky clear. A great day for a ride. Leaving Sintra the enduring uphill began from the very first meter. Climps to thee peaks in the Serra de Sintra up to almost 400 meter of altitude offered great views to the whole coastline from Lisbon City until Ericeira. Rain damages on the roads made a real challenge out of it. Another problem: Days passing really quick this days. Obviously I reached Sintra tired but happy with the very last daylight. Mission complete!
