San Giorgio la Molara en bici

Starts in San Giorgio La Molara.    Takes SP52 out of town,  past Pizzeria Cavallino Rosso, past Il Ritrovo Del Gusto, continues up SP52 a bit, then splits to the left and heads northwest towards Molinara.  Stop there at the brewery for a beer!  There is also a supermarket, a pizza restaurant (Pizzeria Al borgo), and cafe (Plaza Cafe), and a mini-market (Callisto).  Be sure to check out 'Pub Old Truck' ! Then continue to head northwest for approx. 4 km's and enter Peschiti San Marco dei Cavoti on Via Fratelli Cervi.  Stop at the Lions 18 Public House or the Bakery (Panificio Biscottificio).   Then head south for approx 8 km's to Calise.  Some significant climbing start about 2 km's from Calise!  Total climbing back into La Molara is approx. 1200 ft. (375 meters).  Then head east for 3 km's to Maddalena.  The last 2 km's of climbing continues on SP58 back into La Molara. Total ascent for the ride is approx. 2500 ft (720 meters).

Leaves San Giorgio La Molara and visits Montefalcone di Val Fortore (for Pizza!), then goes through Ginestra degli Shiavoni, then on to Castelfranco in Miscano (supermarket stop), then back to Montefalcone and back to La Molara. There are a couple short steep sections, but about as good as you'll get in this hilly area.
