ポンテヴィーコのおすすめMTBライド

純粋なジロ・グラベル。少しリラックスするためにアスファルトの混合区間があります。日陰と日向が交互に現れますが、私の意見では中間シーズンがより良いでしょう。ヴェロラヴェッキアとヴェロラヌオーヴァの区間は、その特徴的な建築様式とともに美しいです。楽しい登り坂と下り坂がありますが、そのためには良いブレーキが必要です（いつものように）。

It is said that during a particularly harsh winter in the 19th century, the icehouse was filled to the brim with blocks of ice cut from the local canals and streams. The ice, covered with layers of pressed straw, lasted until the end of the summer. It seems that that year the village managed to preserve milk and meat longer than usual, avoiding waste and disease.

Used for food preservation, in the winter it was filled with snow and straw: the straw had an insulating function, while the snow, with its weight, became ice compacting inside the structure. This allowed the preservation of food in the summer. We are in "Scorzarolo", an old abandoned village near Verolavecchia (BS), here the icehouse most likely served two dairies for the processing of dairy products. The icehouse or "neviera" is made in a truncated cone shape with a circular plan and walls, usually in brick masonry or, like the one in Scorzarolo, in bricks, the ceiling is made in a dome. There are small windows and an entrance, the structure is about 4m deep.

The Scorzarolo Ice House: Ingenuity and Tradition This circular brick structure, with an ogival roof and about four meters deep, was filled with snow in the winter to preserve food during the summer. It may also have had a public-health service function, making it a key element of rural life at the time.

Next to the silent ruins of a large farmhouse in Verolavecchia, the ancient icehouse resists time, guardian of an agricultural past that tells of ingenuity and tradition. A precious testimony, immersed in the placid simplicity of the plain, where every brick speaks of toil and life lived. Discover it with a slow cycle tourism: pedal among memories of times gone by and let yourself be enveloped by the hidden details of a territory that knows how to excite with its authenticity. Here, in the heart of Bassa Bresciana, even the past continues to breathe.

At this point the terrain makes pedalling particularly difficult because it is a mixture of sand and clay with irregular grooves, in fact you tend to skid a lot and have the wheels change direction abruptly.

On the path you encounter a seemingly insurmountable obstacle, but in reality you can get around it and continue without any problems.
