Lake Como


It's great to be back in Italy after a nice couple of weeks on the Lake of Konstanz with Louis & Caterina.

I'm staying on Lake Como with my mate Tommaso & his fiance Silvia. Tommaso is originally from Quercegrossa but works in Milan. It's not my first time here in Lake Como but it is with my bike.

Today I made a great trip around the 'Lago di Lecco', then climbed over the 'Madonna di Ghisallo', which is the final serious obstacle of The Tour of Lombardi - a 1 day race held every year in October. At the top of the climb there is a chapel dedicated to cyclists & a cycling museum. Unfortunately the museum was closed.


I could have taken hundreds of photos of the breathtaking scenery. It was an awesome day & I am really looking forward to riding here again.
