Vercelli

We managed a cracking pace from lunch to Vercelli and covered the 30km only 20 minutes slower than the girls in the car. After a cold bath and sitting in aircon for a couple of hours I almost feel human again, it hit 35 degrees on the way here and we are currently working out how early we can set off tomorrow. Current plan is 6am, today we left at 7 and covered the 135km here in 5 hours, tomorrow we have 145km across the pancake flat planes of the Po valley.
