   2019

After a make the beast with two backsing stubborn rain storm through Germany, most of the first day's 750km. On a Friday in July. On the autobahn. Not boring! I reached Baden-Baden, a spa town on the edge of the famous riding area Schwarzwald. Found my hotel and got served a tender steak and a bottle of red. Poor hotel hair dryer working overtime to dry out my boots and gloves.




You can google the road 500 through Schwarzwald. More or less like this for 300km







East of the eastern end of Vierwaldstättersee - Luzern at the other end





The Devil's bridge, Teufelsbrücke into Andermatt. Must have been quite easy to defend?




German couple in a British car, at the Drei Könige Post Hotel in Andermatt. It really is easier to connect with people as a solo traveller




Relaxing and easier riding east of Andermatt and Oberalp




Later same day into late medieval town of Glorenza. Very small town, but heavy walls....  Nice to see how they use the old structures in new houses/offices...










This year, a wet Stelvio. Oh well








Stelvio, Bormio and then Gavia pass





South of Bologna / north of Firenze. This is why they become good riders  











Separate thread about the factory museum and the behind a gas station museum

On my way north to Cortina, another milestone (lucky number seven)


Cortina life

I wondered why and later found of because there was a tornado. HIGHLY unusual




Sella




Giau




Jaufen


Timmelsjoch
