I promote my videos on a few different social media platforms, but I just remembered that I haven't posted much on here lately. Let's rectify this!
The release frequency is slow and uneven, but there are several new episode about the 2024 Alps trip on my YouTube channel at this point. Last time I posted about this, we had only just gotten into the Alps, on day 2 of the trip. Now we're up to day 8 out of the 11 total days.
Day 3: The pass not taken
Day 3 of our bike trip through the Alps. The original plan would have taken us up the Kunkelspass. But since Ben's knees were still not great and it was raining, riding a steep, partially unpaved pass seemed like a bad idea. So we stayed in the Rhine valley before turning toward the Albula. And we encounter an unpleasant surprise.
Day 4: Albula and Bernina
Two named, legit passes separated our start in Filisur and our finish near Tirano in Italy: The Albula and Bernina Passes were the two highest ones of our whole trip. And maybe the most beautiful ones?
Day 5:Aprica, Tonale, and way too many motorcycles
To save our knees, we we skipped the Mortirolo and rode the Aprica and Tonale passes. And had to share the road with way too many motorcycles. Ugh.
Day 6: Mendel pass, Passo Pinei, and we reach the Dolomites
On day 6 we start with an easy pass for breakfast: The Mendel Pass. And then some much more challenging riding that gets us into the Dolomites.
Day 7: Dolomites classics: Sella, Pordoi, Falzarego
It's all Dolomites today! We hit several classic passes, with the Sella, the Pordoi, and the Falzarego.
Day 8: The quiet part of the Dolomites: Mauria and Passo di Pura
