DSC00773May 17 - the Val Sinni. Eventually we climbed away from the valley, and, somewhat to my dismay had to ride through a tunnel. We tried to avoid it, but after a little fruitless riding around a village (to the amusement of the old men hanging out in front of the local bar, who waved every time we came by) we realized it was the only way to get where we needed to be without climbing a mountain. Fortunately the tunnel was not too long and there was hardly any traffic here, far away from tourist destinations. We ended up going through quite a few tunnels in the next few days.
