My home climb, the approach is quite simple and on asphalt, it will only be a good warm-up, in fact once you get to the foot of the climb after a small stretch of dirt road, only a few dozen metres, you will find yourself on a rock face that at first glance will seem insurmountable and in fact it will not be easy! The first ramp you face is really hard at around 20％ and you will have to take it in your stride because then the continuation is hard but gradually easier, the average in the second... read more

My home climb, the approach is quite simple and on asphalt, it will only be a good warm-up, in fact once you get to the foot of the climb after a small stretch of dirt road, only a few dozen metres, you will find yourself on a rock face that at first glance will seem insurmountable and in fact it will not be easy! The first ramp you face is really hard at around 20％ and you will have to take it in your stride because then the continuation is hard but gradually easier, the average in the second part is still around 15％, the thundering can help; the ground is very rough and increases the difficulty, the last part is the easiest but it is not easy to get there fresh. Once the climb is over the cemented part also ends so you will be forced to turn back (with a BCD) and you will be able to admire the landscape that you ignored before from fatigue, you will realise that with a BDC the descent will also be difficult!

La mia salita di casa, l'avvicinamento è abbastanza semplice e su asfalto, sarà solamente un buon riscaldamento, infatti una volta arrivati ai piedi della salita dopo un piccolo tratto in sterrato, solo qualche decina di metri, vi ritroverete una parete rocciosa che a prima vista vi sembrerà insuperabile e in effetti non sarà facile! La prima rampa che affronterete è veramente dura intorno al 20％ e dovrete prenderla di slancio perchè poi il proseguo è duro ma via via più semplice, la media nella seconda parte è comunque intorno al 15％, i tonanti posso aiutare; il fondo è molto ruvido ed aumenta la difficoltà, l'ultima parte è la più semplice ma non è facile arrivarci freschi. Finita la salita finisce anche la parte cementata per cui sarete costretti a tornare indietro (con una BCD) e potrete ammirare il paesaggio che avete ignorato prima dalla fatica, vi accorgerete che con una BDC sarà difficile pure la discesa!
