Description

a bit of exploration. Took a "short cut" Gozzano - through "mirkwood" - an unpaved forest road. On the climb decided to check out Centonara - a very steep cobbled climb - rather than on the less steep main road. At Arto you are forced onto a cobbled climb through the village. Generally fast riding for a last, short ride. Although could have made it around the late in 90 minutes.

Conditions

A bit cooler than the last days, 29C by the lake, 21C at the top of the climb.
