I think next year I want to make a spring tour through the Alps, or maybe a summer tour and catch part of the TDF. I’d also like to try a Dolomite trip in the fall.
Erickson Cycle tours here in Seattle has great extended tours over all of the great mountain cycling areas. I may hook up with them. That means 80 miles a day for a few weeks on top of the big climbs. So next year :-)
If I do climb the AdH next year, then I want to go back in a couple of years and climb it again on a fixie.
