Week 2: a lot of North Wind
April 15, 2009 | Category: Journal, Wind Riders
This week the North wind was pretty strong. And was up until the after noon. On some days we also had kiteable South wind. But most of the time only the Trentino (forbidden) part of the lake got the wind.
I discoverd a new nice biking area. A very nice road takes you behind Arco into the Valley. You bike by the nature climbing walls and trought the appel trees. At the moment it is all very beautiful cause everything has flowers.
This track is good for city bikes. After Dro the real hardcore track starts. It is a track that goes to a plateau which gives a marvelous view of the valley, castelli di arco and still a bit of lake garda.
Only to get there is a hard way. I bike with clickys, and normally that goes fine, I click out in time. But this time I couldn’t help falling twice. Not to painfull just both my hips are blue. After the crashes I lowerd my sadle and didn’t click in. Than it is was fine. Some times biking was impossible and we had to carry the bikes.
After this off the road track we reach Pietramurata and the Lake of Cavedine. It is a pretty big nice lake. Many Italians go there for picknicks and bbq’s.
The way back we took the autostrada back to Dro and than the same track trough the Valey.
I can recomment the first part and the lake for everyone and the hardcore track betreen Dro and Pietramurata for the advanced bikers:)
