Thank you! I am the worst blogger ever. I either don't do it at all, or my blog posts are as long as my rides with all of my blah, blah, blah'ing. :p

Just read your blog. Very nice ride report. Whew! Lotta climbing - I admire that - obviously some level of suffering kept in a cheery light.

How sweet of George to ready your bikes like he did. What a nice surprise it must have been.

I'm always curious why people chose which bikes for long distance mountain passes of the kind you did. Sounds like you had a few road bikes to choose from. Why was Stella chosen over the others? What saddle did you use for this ride?

Great ride - dare I say, epic! ;)

I was thinking, what you SHOULD do next year is the new Alta Alpina double century. That sounds like a worthy challenge for you!
