If you happen to be in the area, you shouldn't miss out on this ride. During the week, you are almost alone here, and the views out to sea or Trapani are simply beautiful. After riding round Erice, the descent to Valderice is worthwhile. Best road and almost no traffic. On the way up, it can occasionally blow quite a bit. High aero rims are rather suboptimal here, as in the whole region.🤣... read more

Wen es in die Gegend verschlägt, der sollte sich diesen Ritt nicht entgehen lassen. Unter der Woche fährt man hier fast alleine, und die Ausblicke hinaus aufs Meer oder auf Trapani sind einfach nur schön. Nach der Umrundung von Erice lohnt sich die Abfahrt nach Valderice. Beste Straße und fast kein Verkehr. Auf dem Weg hinauf kann es gelegentlich ordentlich blasen. Hohe Aerofelgen sind hier, wie in der ganzen Region, eher suboptimal.🤣
