- In this video, you will join me along an exciting eurovelo 8 bikepacking trip as I woke up refreshed at Cremona Hotel at 7 am, with my knee feeling better. I decided to check out the cozy backyard of the hotel and then headed to the hotel breakfast, which offered high-quality packaged food. After a short nap, I packed up and prepared to leave the hotel, although my legs felt heavy and sore. The hot weather and headwind made it quite challenging.
On my way to Cremona Square, I noticed real estate ads and took a moment to check out the prices. As I arrived at the city center, I was captivated by the grandeur of the square's big cathedral, which had no door, allowing anyone to hear the church concert from outside. I then made a stop at a nearby park to fill up my Brompton tires.
After my nap, I continued my journey towards Piacenza. The heat was unbearable, to the point that even my iPhone shut down on its own. I encountered a setback on a dead-end road with a fallen tree, forcing me to backtrack a few kilometers. At this point, I started considering booking a stay in Alexandria the next day due to work and the forecasted rainy weather.
Upon reaching Piacenza, I noticed graffiti that made it apparent that staying overnight wouldn't be safe. At a Lidl store, I bought refreshments but had to leave my bike at the counter. In the Lidl parking lot, I enjoyed peaches and single-serve ice cream, a novelty for me in Italy.
At 6 pm, I started searching for a camping spot, aiming to adhere to my new rule of setting up camp one hour before sunset.
Finally, I stumbled upon a lovely camping spot. To protect myself from bugs, I devised a makeshift bug net using my folded Brompton bike and a hammock bug net.
The bug net helped keep insects at bay, although it was a bit too close to my face. Nevertheless, it was better than being fully exposed throughout the night. I simply had to stay still and fixed with my head all night.
