On the road today...

Today’s dumbass road bike adventure.
In retrospect, I am an idiot. I set out on a mountain gravel road that doesn’t appear on any map, climbed over a mountain on extremely rough roads, and didn’t have cell service. Nor did I tell anyone where I was going. Dumb.

What was so dumb about that?
(I actually do that sort of thing pretty often, I just don't tell anyone close to me before nor after that I'm going to do it.)

Basilic- he took a pretty nasty tumble descending Joux Plane direction Samoens in the JPP. It was either car or ditch and chose ditch. 3 compressed vertebrae, Sallanches hospital said op but luckily HUG is now saying no op....phew!
Ps amazing shots as always! Was down in Sestriere last summer and took a look at the gravel but wasn't equipped and was a rainy day, jealous!

Some amazing photos over the last few pages of this thread. Truly inspiring
Here's a few of mine from a recent trip to Germany with the Mrs (Trier on Luxembourg border, and then Koblenz at the other end of the Moselle river)
Your typical German cycle path, super awesome. Why can we no haz in UK?
Sunset over the Mosel
The climb up...
...was worth it for the descent on the other side
Cute bridge over a gorge on the Ruwer Radweg cyclepath
Mmmm cake
Canyon factory open very late packing bikes for dispatch
The local Reisling is really nice
The photographers "golden hour" in Trier
After 3 solid days of my Garmin reading >40c we had a really stormy day, which resulted in (weathergeeks) CAPE of 5000 J/kg (the sort of supersized storms that produces tornados in the USA). Over 31000 lightning strikes were detected across Germany in 2hrs. But anyway it produced a nice sunset, and it was cool watching the lightning

Very good ross!
Very easy 40km winter morning's ride around the bays in Wellington... well it was until it started pouring with rain. At that point I decided to tempo it back home!!
