First day of the tour, just over 60km from Tarvisio to Lesce-Bled. Most of the day was spent on dedicated bike trails, particularly from Tarvisio to Jesenice, which follows the route of the old railway line to Ljubljana. It is a beautiful ride and is very popular. Once I got into Slovenia flew along, not sure whether that’s because it was a tailwind or downhill. I took a wrong turn again due to ambiguous signs. It was mainly flattish except for a 3km climb that I had to walk the last km. But then it was great downhill through villages above Lake Bled. Weather was great with thunderstorms in the afternoon, well after I arrived at my hotel. This was my longest day, distance wise, so it was good to complete it in just over 5 hours. Ljubljana tomorrow!
