Goodbye Dolomites

Today is my last day of riding in the Dolomites and we are doing it in style from Cortina.

Each day has been more fun, harder climbs and better food than the last.

Yesterday was a brutal day of climbing capped by Giau. I earned this cap…

My good friends Michael and Uli (Amsterdam and Copenhagen) happened to be riding in the Dolomites so we met at the top of the mountain for lunch…

For today’s ride, Fillipo arranged for his friend Michael the founder of Festka bikes (which we are all using and loving) to join. Michael was a pro cyclist and ten years ago founded his company in Prague. He has some great entrepreneurship stories (always a reminder how good American entrepreneurs have it). Wet I don’t think he weighs 135 pounds so it will be fun to learn a few tricks and watch him fly up a mountain.

I am looking forward to paying this great trip forward with different groups of people over the years in all kinds of different European cycling spots.

Have a great Saturday.
