Route passante, avec des passages très raides. A faire en début ou fin de journée, mais si possible pas en plein soleil.

Si vous êtes en gravel, il y a toutefois des routes plus sympathiques à faire dans le coin

Cycled from Radda in Chianti...nice town by the way! Good to do ..some tough bits..but doable for a bit of a climber....
Ps...there's a straight downhill section and then a steep uphill section...great for safely accelerating on a big blade...78 km per hour and then up again...until you quickly come to a standstill again.

Vanuit Radda in Chianti gefiets..mooi plaatsje trouwens! Goed tedoen ..wel paar pittige stukjes..maar voor een beetje klimmer tedoen..
Ps...zit een recht stukje naar beneden in en dan weer stijl omhoog..mooi om veilig even gas tegeven op groot blad..78 km per uur en dan weer omhoog..todat je snel weer stil staat
