You leave Lecce’s carved-stone piazzas behind and slip onto a ribbon of farmers’ lanes where olive trunks lean low and the wind nudges you forward. The town’s baroque detail fades into long views of dry-stone walls and white masserias; the e-bike keeps a steady pulse beneath you as the countryside opens.
