Day At the Italy Camp It was not fair , Kevin's bike was so light at these altitudes that he had to hold it down , otherwise it would have floated away! Ok, the Giro is over ( well so are the other two Grand Tours ) and we have one more day of the camp left . Since we were not able to climb Passo San Marco in the beginning of the week we decided to give it an other try , but from the other side . Little overcast and the roads were slightly wet from some rain over the night, but no big deal this was not a 3 hour ride to the base this time and I personally think this is a very cool ride through the Brembo Valley. Read more. Giro di Italia Hi again, I apologize that I have not kept up with the blogging lately . With traveling around the world and I do not even know where all this time went . Cross is here and the road season is over . The last Grand Tour( Vuelta ) is almost done . I really want to finish our 2010 Giro/camp blog so you can read about it and decide if this is something you should put on your calendar for next year, since we are already about to send out the flyers for our 2011 camps I feel bad. Read more. Ghisallo Friday, Ghisallo It has been a while since we did this ride, but I wrote a bunch of notes each day while we were in Italy on our FinKraft Camp, a trip that you do no forget anyway. I have not had time to post everything, but I will finish off the whole camp, so you guys can see what it was all about and if interested next year you can sign up. Read more. De Rosa Re standard breakfast onto a nice and kind of special ride to the old part of Bergamo. Read more. Motirolo and Gavia Today was a big day for the FinKraft Camp, I personally have dreamt all my life (well as long as I been cycling) about riding up and over Mortirolo and the Gavia Pass , those are the climbs you always hear about and both of them have made such a difference in the Giro every time the race has gone over these epic and legendary mountains. ( no different this year). Read more. Recovery Ride Italian Style I think after the Passo San Marco 8 hour spin , some sort of an easier day was on every one's mind. A 3 hour recovery ride sounded right . We started our ride to the local bike shop, Paolo’s bike shop in other words the Italian version of Westwood cycle. Read more. Passo San Marco Passo San Marco, a famous climb from the Giro in the past , our planned ride time was about 6 hours , so a big day.We set off from the hotel @ 9.00 am, today we will have a 3 hour to Morbegno where the climb starts. Read more. First Real Ride of the Italy Camp Well, it was either this road or the Killington stage 2 TT, but since we were here in Italy this one made more sense -:) Had to rub it in a little!! It was time to go to work (riding I mean -:) ) nothing else to do , so a perfect day for a bike ride! Read more. On European Soil Landed and after a couple of miles walking thru the airport in Brussels we found a spot to camp out and we needed some sleep, did not get much on the plane and we all felt like we had not slept in days. Quick bite to eat, I forgot how expensive Europe was, 12 euros for a couple eggs, a bowl cereal and some fresh squeezed orange juice, delicious! Read more. |
