Another fantastic day cycling through Austria. It wasn't far and the hills weren't long but boy they were steep. Resorted to zig zagging when it got to 15%.
A couple of days ago we met a Swiss couple riding tandem - Yann upright and Charlene recumbent/upright. We met up with them again today and sat down for a coffee with them and the locals. They're from the French speaking part of Switzerland, but Yann speaks German as well, so was able to translate for us.

| Franz, the owner of the cafe insisted on us having a drink of his wine, watered down with sparkling water.
We're riding through the Styrian area of Austria. Heaps of vineyards plus a multitude of other crops. All the greenery makes it really humid and for a brief period today we got some rain.

Vineyards and quiet roads along the way
And Dermot saying 'No' to E-bikes - the charging station outside a supermarket.
I wouldn't have minded one today tho!
Tonight we're in a delightful guest house and went out to a 'buschenschank' for dinner - a restaurant that serves local produce.
