Monza - SanRemo 330km
Stivali !
Our rides 'percorso' was a little different to the professionals held annually in March. We started in Monza, thanks to the support offered by a local team there, 'cicli piazza'. We also stopped off at the half-way point in Acqui Terme for the night.
The ride started off at 8am in Monza and we headed south through Milano, past the Duomo and San Siro. It was then pretty monotonous as we made our way through the flat lands of the rice fields. However the comradeship of our new friends kept things interesting, as well as the two support vehicles who motivated us with cheers from the roadside, from within the cars and at the cafe bars.

Bra - Bra
Stivali !
First of all, I should clarify; Bra is a place, a beautiful place in Le Langhe, not far from us.
Today we took part in the Medio Fondo event 110km over very undulating terrain (1740m dsl) in this stunning wine region.
http://www.bikemap.net/route/1557685 is the route.

offroad terre dei santi
Stivali ! (view original post here, some links don't seem to work on FB)
mountainbiking today on all saints day. What ever happened to the all saints?
Well if they liked mountainbiking they'd have liked today's ride.
Beautiful colours with the sun shining and the leaves on the vines & trees turning a lovely yellow / orange / red / brown - fantastic.
We went out today to help a damsel in distress, a mountainbiker with a broken valve on her inner tube, no spare & no shops open on all saints day. They were quite big in Italy. We rode to her abode in Chieri, offroad, to meet her & then to take her out, down the tracks & trails local to her. But.....

Staying with Italian Clarion.......
Stivali !
Well We've had a few visitors prior to our 'free accommodation to Clarion CC members' offer.
But since we've had none.
What more can I say?
I'm thinking of selling places by raffle. Perhaps for a club / group of riders to come & stay / participate in a training camp.
Does anyone know if this works? Is it legal?
Say a club buys a ticket for our 'Paris - Nice finale & Milan - San Remo' trip of 9 days & 8 nights.
A ticket includes for 12 riders to stay.
Ticket price is say £60
To break even we'd need to sell 160 tickets
So a club would have a 1 in 160 chance of getting a free trip (excluding flights) for 12 members.
Good eh?
