Bike ride to Monticolo Lake

I live in a beautiful area of Italy. Amongst the mountains covered with snow, the hills with vineyards, bicycle tracks that wind through the apple orchards. The bicycle path to Lago di Monticolo is a 32km round trip. Basically the whole way there is up-hill and the whole way back is down-hill.
It was perfect weather for a bike-ride this weekend. 22C during the day and a bit chilly during the evening. It took us 1h 15min to get there and about 40min to get back. Stopping along the way to take photos and have lunch.
Look at this spectacular view!

The bicycle path is well-kept. Look at this amazing view with the snow-covered mountains in the background. Stunning!

Sea Ranch House

 This Californian "Sea Ranch" has tried to join japanese minimalism and still make a luxurious home. The enterior roof is ceder and gives a sense of warmth and the large windows open up towards an octagonal patio. To see more of these architects work visit their homepage here.
