OFF the road today. My backyard is also beautiful to bike off-road.

Up to talia de albercutx
Hate you so much sometimes.
At least after work on Wednesday, I can ride up to Cape de Formentor (on the Tacx Neo using a Tacx RLV). :

I think we need a dedicated 'Off the road today' photo thread.

Really??
Today was amazing. The best MTB-Ride i've ever done. Nearly 4'000m climbing within 90k's

nice one kingtom - where was this ride?
One for the pass hunters: Kunkelspass from Tamins (south side), in Grisons near Chur. It's a toll road for motorized traffic between Tamins and Vättis, so very quiet. I saw one car on the way up, and a couple motorbikes on the other side; also a couple eMTBs. It's a fairly short climb (maybe 5.5 km to the top) but very steep, the middle 3km were 13-16% per my altimeter. Also, a good bit is unpaved, but nice packed dirt with little gravel, easy with slicks. At the top, a gem of a tunnel, unlit, unpaved, with lateral opening offering spectacular views. The other side is picturesque, but easier.
I'm almost sure it's on kingtom's daily commute...

Was in Egersund (Norway) where I grew up last weekend. Found this nice little turn on an evening ride. Now it probably was there when I was a kid too, but as a kid I had no road bike.
Spotted in the wild this week while vacationing with my kids in The Galápagos Islands!! I was amazed to see dozens of cyclists there and even a kids team training there on the road!

I grow up a village near Tamins. So i know the Kunkelspass very well . But the last time is more then 20 years ago. At that time it wasn't possible to ride with the roadbike.

Sun and sea and climbs and medieval villages and long vistas at the mastic island (Chios, Greece).
