21 Stunden Autofahrt um mal so 2400 hm mit dem Rad zu fahren.....da fragt man sich doch mal wieder: "Wie bekloppt ist man eigentlich?". Naja ich hatte mir das ja zu vergangenen Event `s schon öfter gefragt und ich finde mich langsam damit ab. Aber nun zum Reisebericht...
Zu 8. machten wir uns auf den Weg. Unser Navigationsgerät hatte leider nicht den besten Tag erwischt und so erreichten wir mit leichter Verspätung unsere Unterkunft in San Valentino alla Muta . Die Zimmer waren schnell bezogen und nach 1 Flasche Erdinger Isodrink , ging es gegen 23:15 Uhr gleich ins Bett, denn schließlich war zeitiges Erwachen angesagt. Am nächsten Tag ging es dann nach einem extrem reichhaltigen Frühstück ( Müsli ) gegen 9 Uhr Richtung Stilfser Joch. Das Wetter war an diesem Morgen absolut nicht geeignet. Leichter Regen, Wind und Temperaturen der niedrigeren Art, machten die Fahrt nicht unbedingt zu einem Vergnügen. Nach ca. 12 km mussten wir dann einen nicht planmäßigen Stopp einlegen. Dem Kollegen Klaus riss ein Bowdenzug . Zum Glück war gleich in der Nähe ein Fahrradfachgeschäft und so konnte der Schaden schnell und günstig behoben werden. Bis zum Anfang des Jochs , rollte es sehr gut, ging ja auch alles bergab.
Nach ca 23 km erreichten wir die Stadt Prad where the actual pass road began. From now on, it went up steadily. Always nice even and it did not take long and I had found my rhythm. Klaus had probably almost the same rhythm, at least we were together up top. Only the Achim had probably caught a particularly good day, he pulled away in the last turns and was not going to achieve even more. So we arrived about 5 minutes after the tip Achim. In this car-free day we were not the only ones on the yoke and it was already quite full when we arrived. There are also expected for about 4 degrees (wind chill minus 5) and heavy fog. We are strengthened first with sausage and Coke for a mere € 7.50. Some time later, Thomas also reached the goal and I was just still cold. We then searched some protection in the medical tent , where the friendly staff provided us with the same ceiling. It was once unbearable. After about 1 hour then they were all on target. We decided to drive down the same path. Now it has been rewarded for all the hardships. The departure was just the hammer, 25 km in speed rush. Slowly it was getting warmer and the sun came out.
waiting now for about 12 km climb up to San Valentino . And it had in itself. For these 12 km we needed about 1 hour. There was no headwind but a storm of counter thought we had done was not enough today. Something in between meals I was also so very tired of fighting against the storm suit and would prefer even like the Stelvio down. But yes we did no other choice. Finally, we reached some point yes but then our goal. To our surprise there were already 4 of our troops in the target ... Such a Radtaxi what is already fine ;-) At the end there was still a delicious sundae
went there first after a hot shower into your very own swimming pool to relax muscles. Around 7 we found ourselves at the pizzeria for a supper. And yes the tortellini were very delicious. Have not happen anymore. I fell into bed around 21:30.
7 clock the night was already over and it was packed to the bag. How could it be otherwise, there was bright sunshine. At half past 9, we made our way home and with a few traffic jams, we arrived back in 19:30 against Löbau .
Conclusion: All in all a great weekend or
It is worth crazy to be!
