this year the Tour will start from Italy where are scheduled 4 stages.

As a very lucky man, I'm leaving very close to stage 1 hilly sector as well as stage 2 that will cross my town (Ravenna).

Saturday I have ridden my Road Glide from Colle del Barbotto to Santa Sofia, the ones of you following the Tour most probably have seen the amazing roads on TV.

here the link to the GPX from HD- Planner

beautiful country as a visitor from Illinois we always stay north in Udina region but have traveled thru your neighborhood on the way from Roma

 

I used to be I to cycling, I bet it’s way better to be on a Harley on the Tour de France than on a pedal bike

 

Hell even on a motorcycle it would be tough.

 

I have been an avid cyclist since about 2009.
I've ridden tens of thousands of miles, and I still don't even come close to what the slowest TDF rider can achieve.
They all have my respect.

Beautiful area for a ride of any kind, too!

 

bexauae they all do steroids or some performance enhancing drug or it seems like anyway. And they are riding in a peloton which increases their speed significantly.
