I posted a lengthy reply but the forum police seem to have censored me!
I arrived in Bolzano this evening and am up for riding my 4th Giro Dolomiti
Tomorrow (Friday 22 July 2016) I aim to visit some friends in Val di Fiemme , but I will register at the Fiero (Event HQ) on Saturday at about 09:00 - I could meet you then and go for a light cycle for coffee and lunch.... If you wish.
To the best of my knowledge I am the only Irish rider .
I have a good knowledge of cycling in the Dolomites - I've been coming to the region since 2002 (when I joined WW!!)
I can give you all the advice you want
I will be at the HQ on Saturday at 09:00...ish on Saturday and I'll be wearing my club kit - Fluoro Yellow Dave Kane Cycles
If you wish make yourself known and we can have a leg turning cycle, swap stories and have a coffee... I'll buy
I look forward to meeting you
Regards
Enda Marron

Hehe Thanks Enda! Cool to meet a fellow weenie.
For those who were not there; really great event with good atmosphere and good food. Low shoulders but at the same time a good competitive field. I hope to go back next year or some other time and will definitely recommend it to others. There were also a lot of photographers around during the stages. A few of my pictures here (which we could buy at the end):

Sorry, misread that. At first I thought it said "how's the epo in climbing". I've been reading too much of the Pro Cycling thread. Anyhow, in climbing, epo matters more than eps.nismosr wrote:how's the eps in climbing ?

No epo, no eps, just an ep It works great by the way, both up and down, and has a rock solid but smooth feel to it. I had a C50 before and I might prefer the way that bike felt on the climbs. Springy is a word that comes to mind. Feel, though, it is a hard thing to objectify.
