As already done in Torrazzo a few days earlier, today is dedicated to a tour of patrolling the area around Avigliana. In particular, the main interest was Colle Braida and the Sacra di San Michele, seen in the distance the day before. The tour is taken from the profile Il Giro a modo tuo (komoot.com/it-it/collection/2053997/il-giro-a-modo-tuo-25-percorsi-cicloturistici-nei-luoghi- della-corsa-rosa), which collects cycling tours …

Many cyclists who, as I descended towards Giaveno, climbed. Especially mountain bikes and e-bikes. Today was the classic "Sunday" ride day. Due to the …
