After the efforts of the past few days suffering on tough climbs, our legs begged for mercy this morning.
So we opted for a Gravel ride as flat as a piadina romagnola.
We set off cheerfully, with that fresh air that makes you feel like a cycling lion, but the sun woke up with the idea of turning us into

Program of the day Supergrappagravel.
Mathematics is not an opinion.
45km x 1450m elevation gain… never trust an optimistic cyclist.
At six in the morning with my friends Claudio and Daniela, we were already on our way, and upon arriving at the foot of Grappa, while sipping a coffee, we consulted.

The last tour in French territory was supposed to be short but intense, with the "soft" variant that climbs from the Col du Lautaret towards the majestic Col du Galibier and the epic offroad detour to the wonderful Lac Grand Ban and Lac Rond, for a feast of pure high-altitude gravel. 🏔️🚴♀️
But the

Zwift, move aside.
On the scorching asphalt of France, with the alpine wind ruffling my hair, the transition from virtual to real is a wonderful short circuit.
To reach the start of the legend, we avoid the chaos by taking the Route de Pontel.
A small secondary road literally suspended in the void, as if

A car, a semi-soft mattress, and a blanket whose molecular density was reminiscent of confetti. Covering your feet meant exposing your shoulders to the alpine cold; covering your shoulders meant turning your big toes into two ice lolly sticks. Between shivers, sleep eventually came.
We arrive in Susa

Colle del Nivolet
Once upon a time there was the Strada Provinciale 50, a ribbon of asphalt unrolled at the foot of the Orco Valley.
Climbing towards the realm of high altitudes, civilization slowly begins to fade, giving way to gigantic and severe granite walls, ready to tower over

There are bike rides where pedaling turns into a perfect balance between a heroic feat and a high-altitude psychotherapy session.
The climb towards Passo Crocedomini starts solemnly, with that slightly austere charm of the great Alpine passes. But before letting us spit out pellets on the dirt road, the

The start is marked by enthusiasm.
54 km… 1500 m of elevation gain… 98% unpaved… in 3 hours we’ll have it done… Or so we thought.
The track, with timing bordering on sadism, immediately introduces us to the first killer climb. Right at the moment of maximum effort, when the lungs are about to divorce the

The sun is already beating down hard as we pedal towards Monte Novegno. To reach the summit, the road is long and the asphalt seems endless, but the last 8 kilometers change the tune: the coolness and the dirt road finally take center stage and lead us straight to the top.
Lassù, the view is breathtaking

Knees tight to the frame, fingers glued to the brakes and pads sending smoke signals: the descent from Fosse to Peri is a vertical thrill that will even tousle your soul.
The sun today is not a simple guest in the sky, it is the director of the day.
It warms the back and the metal of the bicycle.

Two meters from the sky and three fingers of dust.
"Come on, let's do a scenic ride, a bit of light gravel and lots of nature".
And so we find ourselves pedaling where the air is thinner, with legs singing melodies of yesteryear, accumulating dust and emotions.
The route led us to explore the

Cyclists in Sardine mode
Sleeping in the car, transformed into a hotel, means learning the art of fitting in.
At 7 in the morning, the thermometer reads 8 degrees. Or, better yet, let's hope the sun comes out.
The sky outside is "reinforced concrete" gray, which doesn't promise anything good. It's the classic

The sun shines brightly, and as I start to pedal, I feel that beyond the horizon, within me, a transformation is about to begin. I immediately find my rhythm, my silence, leaving the daily chaos behind. Infinite joy opens up before me, and my mind becomes light.
Every effort becomes natural, even my heart

Gravel on the Vecia Via della Lana: that marvelous exploration where the boundary between "recreational activity" and "medieval penance" blurs with extreme ease. The road surface is a multi-act psychodrama: one nonchalantly moves from pleasant and flowing sections to concrete ramps, up to expanses of
