I beated the heat! I am in the heart of Romania now and reached Sibiu after another 172 km ride from Deva. Great day! Oppressively hot, so I took more breaks than usually - with more than 6 liter of water. In terms of scenery, it was definitely one of the most beautiful stages so far. Once again HQ roads and this time it was extremely quiet all day long - one long winding delight... Romania, simply surprising. I want more!
