Dopo il Passi di Forca di Cerro da Piedipaterno mi sono diretto verso Cortaccione dove inizia il Passo della Spina. Bella salita con paesaggi bellissimi. Gli 8 primi chilometri mediamente impegnativi, più tosti gli ultimi 5.

Another climb almost parallel to that of Pettino, which can be accessed via Silvignano, characterised by a few straight stretches and a few hairpin bends towards the end shade in the morning but with the heat attacked by horseflies

Altra salita quasi parallela a quella di Pettino dove si può accedere passando da Silvignano caratterizzato da alcuni drittoni e qualche tornante verso la fine ombra al mattino ma con il caldo aggrediti da tafani
