Sharon and I spent a week in November riding different areas of the eastern part of the island of Sicily. We had a fun time and both felt that we'd be glad to go back to Sicily again for bicycling -- even though it's not as convenient for us to travel to as some other places in Europe.
see Photos We liked that Sicily has lots of nice farm-country riding, much still green in November, with even some flowers. Also hill towns in dramatic settings, and roads beside the sea. Sometimes we saw the big Mt Etna volcano, with lots of snow around its summit. Our trip was over the American holiday of Thanksgiving in late November, so we got a full week of travel from only three days taken out of vacation allotment, and the temperature in Sicily then was mostly pretty comfortable for bicycling. For lots more details see my report, which also has a link to a map of the places we visited. Ken ![]() |

Nice pictures, Sicily and the Southern Italy are definitely on our list of places to tour in Europe.
