Roadbike tour to Grado

Welcome to our Radltour!

September 16, 2918 trough September 20, 2018

Participants:

Heide, gardener, always strong and still young

Margit, with her e-bike

Raimund, always young...

Iris, tired and retired bicyclist

A wonderful repeat tour among friends. In sunny weather conditions.

As there is no time to stall.

we traveled by train to Tarvisio Boscoverde train station.

The bike trail (Bahnweg) is right at the station. It leaded us on good marked roads down to Grado.

At Grado we spent one rest day with a swim at the Adriatic sea.

Our return way has been different: To Udine by bicycle, further by train to Pontebba and then Passo Pramollo (Nassfeld)

Riding down the bike trail "R3" (Gailtalradweg) down to Arnoldstein, whereas we caught the train.

Enjoy the pictures and my short report.

Good luck to our followers.
