• The Po valley will be a slow, but I guess it makes it achievable. Crossing the mountains would rule a lot out.
    Maybe I'll ride over to the tourmalet and wave at you.

  • That would be cool!

    It's back roads through the Po valley so will be different from when I've done it on TCR. Dk if you've been there lately but last year lots of the main roads have had cycle paths since I was last there. They're OK, but they aren't designed to get across junctions quickly so not really useable.

    He reckons it should be doable in 12—14 days, but there's a few climbs and some off road, and no main road sections to make up time, so I reckon it might not be that straightforward to get there in under 2 weeks. Less pressure than tcr though. I've not trained as much, and haven't even got my bike built up yet, need to get on with that!

  • Sit back and enjoy it! Not been to the Po valley can't say I've any desire to return. Andy does seem to put together some good routes, will be interesting to hear how it goes.
