Looks like an amazing route!
2 months agoLooks amazing. Was it loose gravel or ok to travel on?
2 months agoWe read about Hisa Franko in Susan's journal some years back and it's definitely been on my radar to build into a trip. Your journal's are really great to read and glad you're back on the road again, especially now that TA have aborted and taking a big health break. Looking forward to following the rest of your journey!
2 months agoI think you would really enjoy it. There are so many rides around. We were here in the fall 2019 and the colours were outstanding.
2 months agoThis area looks fantastic, we might have to look into it for a future October trip :).
2 months agoBrunico also has two Messner museums which we are going to check out in the next couple days.
2 months agoI know he liked the pizza to Toblach. We had a detour around there today.
2 months agoOr just a nice day trip from Obertilliach maybe.
2 months agoAndrew seems to like Brunico. The pizza maybe?
2 months agoThanks Carolyn,
We’ve had some great meals and some ‘not so great’ ones on this trip. A little more uneven than our 2023 tour. That’s cycle touring I guess. Hisa Franko was certainly a standout though, but not something we'd do every day!
Good point. I do recall spending many many minutes being stuck behind one when descending a big pass coming into Italy in 1982 (one that K and I ar hoping to ride again on this your - weather permitting). Given the vintage of that particular Piaggio there may even have been uncombusted diesel in it’s cloud!
2 months agoAlthough I wouldn’t miss the clouds of diesel exhaust. Maybe they will update to electric?
2 months agoI definitely felt as disheveled as I look. The beer was enjoyed.
2 months agoYour brother is like a kid that found a new cartoon he loves. He keeps watching it and giggles. It is very funny. 😆
