EPIC! Done with a historic bike during the Ardita event, spectacular and heroic especially if you do the time trial! Tramenda to be tackled with historic bikes, but at the same time grandiose. The last section is devastating!... read more

EPICA! Fatta con una bici storica durante la manifestazione Ardita, spettacolare ed eroica soprattutto se si fa la cronoscalata! Tramenda da affrontare con bici storiche, ma allo stesso tempo grandiosamente fantastica. L'ultimo pezzo è devastante!
