Kirkland Belgian Chocolate Cups

[SPRING 2010-around on Saturday] a hello to all and maybe see you in 2011

are happy with how it gone!
thankfully nobody was hurt because of bad road conditions and weather occurrence that has not given us rest on the tour on Saturday.
from Friday to Saturday we were hoping for an improvement, but in the morning the clouds were so low as to discourage any attempt to climb to the summit of Monte Nerone, and Petrano Catria.
we decide to change the planned around avoiding the climb to Nero by Piobbico and Maureen decided to go in Sant'Angelo in Vado and apecchio, and hope that the best time to go up the mountain Petrano.

(Saturday morning at the start)

being closed due to landslide road rennet-bucket-you were-Piobbico (former road tour of Italy with a unique) we had three alternatives: the first
a dirt road that was renovating the bottom, but the gravel was not being beaten a little bastard;
the second, cutting the mountain Peruzzi is an asphalt road with a 4km stretch of gravel;
the third acqualagna all asphalt road of no value.

ahahah
fact that we go to the mountain Peruzzo!


low clouds and fog force us to proceed slowly, with more than we are Honda DN and a suzuki gsx r in the ground less suited to their characteristics, but all is well and return smoothly to the asphalt.

Piobbico pass and shortly after we take the road to Sant 'Angelo in Vado.
the road is a Swiss cheese, totally devastated by the ice of winter, if you could dodge a hole is finished to take another 5 in the series, unfortunately we did not know the track conditions and even imagined it was so very bad, because at know before, I might as well jump on the main roads such as the mouth and Seriola Trabaria that are better kept.
mid-morning we are at Sant'Angelo in Vado just in time for a break and a coffee at the bar, no one wants to distribute between water and the fog would want to stand still and talk crap and shoot in bursts, other than running laps.

you move into apecchio, the road is slightly worse than the other, while I control the times where we are, I'm thinking about which way to go, if you go whether or not the mountains or even always remain low regardless. Meanwhile
between a hole and the other to arrive apecchio under a constant drizzle.
never stops raining.


would be the case come down to take a stroll on foot, but the gloom prevails and makes me decide to enter into direct motion in the small city center for a quick tour.



luckily Patrizia Guido took photos of the bike, otherwise there would be a great dark photo! :-)
walk the side of the mountain valley to Nero, and Pianello take the wise decision to avoid the mountain Petrano, another bumpy road was all stressed out with no view to counteract. we head towards rennet and then go straight to the castle of the pediment, where we stop for lunch.

we enter the fortress at the same time a couple of old motorcyclist in plainclothes, with theoretical and djetto Bebi and Sami. He looks to get into the bike, but now say that they use to go to the bar and the sea in summer.

lunch was not a single happy note, but a symphony of flavors!
the lovely restaurant gable has been exceeded:
an appetizer, a fantasy of a first, passatelli white mushrooms, tagliatelle with duck sauce, growth and vegetables, then grilled meat, jam tarts.
coffee, grappa and limoncino!
the end was one of the most beautiful and lunch where I ate better in the last year, I do not want to exaggerate, but maybe even more than a year.

difficulties with digestion due to alcohol and decide to go to the monastery of Fonte Avellana. right to proceed with the bitterness of Monaco, which is good and uncork all!


meeting with the bikes Vintage tour of montefeltro


always in the fog and rain we get on the bikes, go round the mountain and return to Catria rennet at the hotel.
luckily the sky is clement and 10 km after the rain stops making us enjoy some views before we arrived at the hotel.
then dinner just to keep the jaws train and sleep, you will have to leave early for the ride of the morning.
