Day 7

FFS - another AAT.

This one was 2.5 hours in length as the forecast was again for thunderstorms later in the afternoon (and sure enough they did show up). I found it hard to string climbs together and it was much more of a glide and climb day but with some strong climbs every so often. A silly low point of 3450' amsl in the hills East of Foligno had the pulse increasin as landout options weren't great but I climbed away in 4.5kts to carry on and come home at 116kph, 10kph slower than 1st place. Too slow for the day and the lead has shrunk to just 76 points with 2 days remaining - the tension is mounting!
