We set off from the centre of Mossano to turn immediately right into Via Monti and find the first hairpin bends with gradients of more than 15%. The wide road makes it difficult to visually perceive the gradient, but we are on really hard percentages with very little room for rest. At the exit of a hairpin bend, we take a small concrete road to the left, which still reserves a really heavy effort, before finally settling down on decent asphalt and feasible gradients. The last concrete ramps, not as hard as the previous ones, lead to a house where the road ends.
This is a variant of the Via Monti climb that is only interesting if you are not tired of the effort already made at the Mossano exit. Otherwise, I would suggest continuing on to San Giovanni or detouring into Via Olivari, for a more rewarding experience.
Si parte dal centro di Mossano per deviare subito a destra in via Monti e trovare i primi tornanti con pendenza superiore al 15%. La strada ampia rende difficile la percezione visiva della pendenza, ma siamo su percentuali veramente dure con pochissimi spazi di riposo. All'uscita di un tornante si prende una stradina a sinistra in cemento, che riserva ancora una fatica veramente pesante, prima di acquietarsi finalmente su asfalto decente e inclinazioni fattibili. Le ultime rampe in cemento, non dure come le precedenti, conducono ad una casa dove la strada finisce.
Si tratta di una variante della salita di Via Monti interessante solo se non si è paghi della fatica già fatta all'uscita di Mossano. Altrimenti suggerirei di proseguire fino a San Giovanni oppure deviare in Via Olivari, per ricavarne esperienze senz'altro più appaganti.
