What a lovely and fun day. Loved listening to Dire Straits and seeing the captions on the video.

Great video! Actually, they are all so good. I had to laugh at the two on light road bikes zipping past.

Missed having the full descriptions, & fleshed out details, however David’s video did it great justice, & as always, gave a realistic feel for the ride of the day.
Allez, allez! Team A&D

We are on tour as we speak. Avignon is tonight’s destination. We arrive in Venice on July 7th. It should be nice and warm then!

is there no problem that bratwurst cannot solve?

Yes, it’s incredibly beautiful. We have done 12,800 meters of climbing. One more climb to go, then back to the regular hills.

We have been on te road for 30 days now and are in our way back to Venice. Will be in Levico Terme tomorrow. Are you on the road now?

I see your day today. We are on completely different routes - mine is no help to you. It sure looks gorgeous!

We are riding the other direction - from Venice to Glurns (Stelvio). I'm 99% sure Stelvio is not in my future - but Jacinto is dreaming about it.

Our overnights are: Lido(Venice), Roncade, Bassano Del Grappo, Levico Terme Bolzan, Glurns.

IDK if that helps you any. I think I'm a little late.

… bolts? How about, a bowl of potato chips.

Yes, me too. Last night we had a bolts of potato chips and anothe bowl of tarrali’s. They are addictive.

Love Italy for the snacks you often get with your beer!

These guys were flying! The power of the pack creates a vortex, pulling everyone forward. The unlucky ones get spun off the back. The event has traffic control so drivers were made aware of the bikers.

How thrilling to have the pelotons « riding along with you », or being on the tour at the same time. Yes, « allez, allez » to you both as well!

Haha, a great description of the train/bus gong-show.
In the end, a nice comfy ride for you both over the pass.
