The Route

The route - like many cycling routes - sort of evolved itself. It had to be from Home to Rome but which way. One of my main aspirations was the Passo dello Stelvio, which I have wanted to climb for some time, I also wanted to visit a friend in Karlsruhe and bike through the Ardenes and Luxembourg, the rest was merely dot-to-dot until a few weeks ago I added the Dolomites and Venice into the route. It will be about 2800k in 29 days including 4 rest days.
