Fiesole and south Mugello

A ring from Florence to Mugello, passing through Fiesole, on the same road of 2013 world championship.
Fiesole is a small but very old village, established before Florence, as a retirement village for old soldiers in middle age.
The city is placed on the top of a hill very close to Florence, so from the church square you can have a very beautiful view.
In the square there is a bronze statue of Garibaldi that meet the king after Italy unification, it is a very important thing in the history of Italy.
Mugello is a very green country, where there are many farms famous for milk, beef, and a kind of pasta named "tortelli" filled with potatoes, definitely a lovely place to ride and to have a lunch.

Have a good ride!
