From Messina, we followed the north coast westwards for a while then cut south over the mountains on a spectacular twisty mountain road. With the GS in Dynamic mode, suspension set to hard, it was blast, bootscraping in the turns on really nicely surfaced road - all the more surprising, given the generally appalling state of most of the roads we have seen in the relatively poverty stricken south of Italy.
Blogging is made very hard given lack of internet at speeds capable of sending photos and more particularly lack of time and energy. After a long day's riding, by the time I have showered and changed, and had, dinner there is no time left, unless I am to shun my companions completely which of course isn't the point of touring. It was easier in Spain this year when I fixed my own schedule and most of the places I stayed had good internet.
We are now in Taormina and today will visit Mount Etna. I think I have been getting some decent video and i n due course will be able to post this when I am home and have edited it.
