Last year we conquered this terrible monster. Made a route during our jersey to Austria-Italy with an unfamiliar climb. The start from Tarvisio is nice, downhill to Pontebba. The profile was firm but doable. The Passo pramollo that splits at the foot has been done by car before and is not very bike-friendly. Then this one as a neighbour to the Zoncolan, down to Tolmezzo and then on to the Sella Nevea. But first this one... Sat in the 2013 Giro from the other side and it's understandable tha... read more

Last year we conquered this terrible monster. Made a route during our jersey to Austria-Italy with an unfamiliar climb. The start from Tarvisio is nice, downhill to Pontebba. The profile was firm but doable. The Passo pramollo that splits at the foot has been done by car before and is not very bike-friendly. Then this one as a neighbour to the Zoncolan, down to Tolmezzo and then on to the Sella Nevea. But first this one... Sat in the 2013 Giro from the other side and it's understandable that they never come back! Steep, steep, narrow, gravel bits everything in the climb that makes it tough. You go up in three steps of 18% or more. There is no end to it. At the top, though, good rifusio with snack and drink. Then downhill, normally a party but this time 90% braking and watching out, whole sections of asphalt road, blind turns and steep chasms in the forest. Your hands hurt from braking.
Last stretch is nice though thankfully.
A mountain you can do but advice, ignore it and go straight to the Zoncolan then everyone understands you've suffered.

Afgelopen jaar dit verschrikkelijke monster bedwongen. Tijdens ons truitje naar Oostenrijk -Italië een route gemaakt met een onbekende klim. De start vanuit Tarvisio is leuk, bergaf tot Pontebba. Het profiel was stevig maar te doen. De Passo pramollo die zich aan de voet gesplitst al eens met auto gedaan en is niet erg fietsvriendelijk. Dan deze maar als buurman van de Zoncolan, afdalen naar Tolmezzo en dan door naar de Sella Nevea. Maar eerst deze... Zat in 2013 in de Giro van de andere kant en het is begrijpelijk dat ze nooit meer terug komen! Steil, steil, smal, gravel stukjes alles in de klim wat het zwaar maakt. Je gaat in drie stapjes van 18% of meer omhoog. Er komt geen eind aan. Boven wel goede rifusio met hapje en drankje. Dan afdalen, normaal een feest maar deze keer 90% remmen en uitkijken, hele stukken asfalt weg, blinde bochten en steile afgronden in het bos. Je handen doen pijn van het remmen.
Laatste stuk is wel lekker gelukkig.
Een berg die je kunt doen maar advies, laat hem links liggen en ga meteen de Zoncolan doen dan snapt iedereen dat je hebt afgezien.
