Happiest while cycling uphill.
Looking for a 2011 calendar that features some of the great Alps climbs of France, Italy, and Switzerland?
I had no idea of the plan, but I knew that we wouldn’t be doing something as standard as climbing Alpe d’Huez.
One of the most beautiful, big climbs I’ve ever done.
These central Switzerland climbs are as good as it gets.
Sunday was the 5th and last big ride on this Italy / East Swiss trip and one of the best.
One of the toughest rides excluding cyclosportives that I have ever done.
Cycling up Mortirolo: One of the steepest climbs regularly raced up – appearing 10 times in the Giro since 1990 – always from this side starting in Mazzo.
There are three ways to cycle up Stelvio. The north-east side is the most famous. Today, I explored the other two ways.
Cycling photos, map, elevation profiles, etc for the legendary Passo Gavia. One of the greatest days ever on a bike.
