Would anyone be interested in doing this gran fondo in Italy on the 7th of June 2015? Www.granfondostelviosantini.comits on a Sunday so could fly over Saturday and back Monday it's an easy place to get to, very near Milan. 150k and it takes in the stelvio which is the most stunning road in the world

I don't know whether to be interested or worried after looking at the videos on their site! Looks like some challenge! Sent from my Galaxy Note II using proboards

Ryanair flights were pretty reasonable when I checked yesterday to Bergamo. About 150ish return and another 100 for the bikes. They do an early 7am flight out and a late one about 9pm back I think.
Best book my spot too so there is no backing out!

If you ask me this race can only be done flat out. Go hard or go home as they say.

Ah Mr Bell - sign yourself up there. I'm going to do it in the big ring all the way. Should be grand

The shit just got real! No backing out now! So any thoughts on flights? I'm thinking of: Sat 6/6 6.20am from Dublin €76.99 Mon 8/6 21.45 from Bergamo €64.99 Bike is €100 return Total €241.98 Other alternative are fly out Fri at 17.50 €45.99, or back Mon 10.15 €64.99 I'm happy enough to book flights now while cheap, and be easier for organising ourselves if we end up on same flights? Rent car and book accom later? Attachments:
