the top bike challenges in Italy
Cycling gives you a lot of time to think. Especially going uphill, when your thoughts are more emotionally charged and intense. Space shrinks and time expands. Exertion is slow. You climb slowly and your thinking is just as slow. The climbs and passes that characterise Italy can silence even the most chatty of cycling friends. Are you ready to accept the challenge?
