Mainly flat road ride that avoids significant amounts of traffic from Castelnuovo don Bosco back to Chieri. Then a quiet road to climb back up to Pino.

Taking in the two main peaks of Turin with a tough climb up from Moncalieri castle then a Long easy decent to pick up the road to Superga via Valle Ceppi. Great quiet climbs followed by a long circular route through Chieri back to Turin.

Great roads, windy, with some tough climbs! Good fun. The downhill cobbles section at Pena can be avoided by continuing down to Sintra. Not recommended on road tyres... Potentially reversing the road might be with the wind...

A journey through rural Spain (Montana Palencia) super road, beautifal lakes surrounded by soaring mountains. A quick coffee and Tortilla in Velillia (the tooth fairies holiday home!) and a climb up to see the Santuario del Brezo. This part is a "strada bianca" the climb Is great quality, the 3km of decent more challenging. I complete this with a road bike with 30mm road tyres. The climb is challenging physically, the decent is just tough. Well worth avioding Guardo...

Really amazing park. This route is doable, you will head up a "private" Road (a ranger told me that private roads don't exist, it is just to keep horses in), and have to jump the gate at the top.
The cobble section decent at Pena is tough on road tyres, this can be avoided by going down to Sintra.
