If you stay in Laion for the Sella Ronda, you have to climb this pimple before the return journey. It hurts a lot, also because precisely on the steepest parts the road surface is not great. Percentages that we saw on our Wahoo were up to 15％. That hurts quite a lot when you have already climbed 2600 m in your legs. It is nice that the top is in a small mountain village with a prominent church. Forget about getting into a rhythm, this one is raking.... read more

Als je voor de Sella Ronda verblijft in Laion, dan moet je deze puist nog 'even' op voor de terugreis. Doet flink pijn, ook omdat juist op de steilste delen het wegdek niet geweldig is. Percentages die we zagen op onze Wahoo waren max richting 15％. Dat doet behoorlijk pijn als je al 2600 hm in de benen hebt. Het is wel leuk dat de top ligt in een klein bergdorp met een prominente kerk. Vergeet het maar om in een ritme te komen, deze is harken.
