Brixental Venice nonstop - Loop 2010

In February 2009 the idea came to the traditional Festa del Redentore camping weekend in Cavallino to travel by bike. The first attempt was on 7/17/2009 successful and was repeated on 15.7.10. It was surprisingly easy trips in both the approximately 330km to be covered by bicycle. The problem was less the distance but rather the heat in northern Italy.

The two weekends were a great success - mainly because the right people here (photos right from 2010 and 2009). Thank you for the great time at Alexandra, Anita, Sonja, Mike, Helmut, Renate and Peter (r vln 2010).

The Redeemer hard in Venice (fireworks) was traditionally the highlight of the weekend. The festival takes place since the end of the 16th Century every third Saturday in July. It commemorates the end of a plague epidemic, which fell in 1576 50000 people died. The second focus of the weekend was of course extensive relaxing on the beach.

trips in the area eg. on islands in the lagoon completed the program. The public transport system in the area of Venice will take place on boats. Instead of bus or subway, take for example. after Burano a boat. Will most likely want to watch the sunrise on Beach or to have to go into the sunset to the lighthouse Punta Sabbioni. The emptied by the cycling glycogen stores were filled with large amounts of specialties from Italian kitchens and basements again.

The most obvious road bike route from the Brixental destination in Cavallino via Kitzbühel , Pass Thurn , Felbertauern , Lienz , Gailbergsattel , Plöckenpass after Tolmezzo and along with Friuli on Tagliamento in more or less direct line to Jesolo and Cavallino Located on the lagoon directly across from Venice on a peninsula extending from Jesolo - . The distance is about 330km long and has about 3400 meters. are with Pass Thurn, Felbertauern Gailberg and Plöckenpass it 4 longer climbs. The rest of the spread increases to the category 'highway overpass'.

The evaluation of the GPS tracks shows that there were two trips 'weakness'. 2009, I lost between Tolmezzo and San Daniele because of the unusual heat and some navigation errors for 1 hour. 2010 of the heat intrusion came later - on the last 40km I got over 2009 for nearly an hour. I have some long pauses needed to get to their destination at all. If it does not have close to 40 degrees (in the non-existing shadow probably more) had then I would have been in 1 hour quick Cavallino. realize

most important element is a 330km trip to the diet. It is not possible all the calories you consume replace them during the trip. The more energy, water and minerals, but they replaced during the ride back, the longer you can relatively easily be on the road. Has proven to me a mixture of dried fruits, nuts (providing much fat), bars and bananas. Additionally, I have maltodextrin added in the form of gels and powders. The liquid I've tried about 1 / 2 liters per hour to drink - mainly iso-juice (diluted more than recommended by the manufacturer).

Long distances are not long breaks easier. 2010, I paused significantly less than in 2009. Unfortunately, I had the Felber Tauern a long wait. It is helpful if the long range in the head in short stages and divides the rest fades out first. I've driven so 7 short stages (for Felbertauern to Plöckenpass, San Daniele, the Tagliamento bridge to the bar at the intersection of Ca 'Gaiotto (sprint-Cola), to Jesolo and then to the finish) and never had the feeling of long be charged rest of the way mentally. Very motivating it was found in 2010, just before the Plöckenpass a message on the road. A backlight and a front lamp should pack one - there are some moderately-lit tunnel (and perhaps a night-section).

has proven to reduce the baggage as far as possible. To live without a backpack brings a significant gain in comfort. Enough space for luggage provides a saddle bag and luggage box for the water bottle holder. Good work has wiedermal the aero bars, where a GPS can be fixed so that one's current position and other line always in view.

By Brixental and over the Pass Thurn ( Description quaeldich.de ) we follow the best of the main road. The ascent to the Pass Thurn is elongated with a low pitch. The Top-to Mittersill is brought rapidly behind. Average Felbertal ( Description quaeldich.de ) songwriter comfortable only in the morning - up to drive in heavy traffic through the avalanche galleries is probably not as pleasant. The landscape in Felbertal (in the heart of the Hohe Tauern ) but it is worth seeing.

By Felber Tauern Tunnel ( Link2 ) may not be the Wheel drive through. There is a shuttle service of 18 euro (per trip, not per person!) costs ( info here), which however in the morning (before about 07:00) is obviously not available. South do you register by phone (+434875880611, shield or telephone shortly before the tunnel entrance). The north one can ask directly at the toll booth. 2009, I was lucky with Auto Stop, 2010, it took about 40 minutes before someone stopped (for the shuttle service I was too early). Thanks to Richard (2009) and Manfred (2010) for the ride.

Up Matrei you can let it rip again. From Goes to Lienz Matrei through Iseltal and continue through Drautal after Oberdrauburg always easy downhill. Osttirol pleasantly surprising fact is brought behind them - although even here some landscaping is required - the Lienz for example, give the East Tyrolean city an impressive setting.

From Oberdrauburg is the Gailbergsattel ( Description quaeldich.de ) on the program, go shallow and shaded by trees and on summer days enjoyable. The rise of Kötschach-Mauthen from iG to Plöckenpass ( Description quaeldich.de ) was emotionally the longest of the day. There are fewer shadows, the road is partly bad, lots of traffic and some tunnels were before the border with Italy in their way. Video Plöckenpass , Gailberg

On the long downhill to Tolmezzo you feel more and more the "Italy-holiday feeling '. The landscape changes, it was warmer with each turn. It comes in a bilingual area, road signs etc. are in Italian and Friulian labeled. At a stop in a supermarket I've heard times 2009, the language - it took me to a mixture of French, English and Italian recalls.

Tolmezzo followed by a piece of the Tagliamento , a river with some impressively wide river bed. The broad gravel plains can be seen on satellite images, for example. Google Maps for clear even from a distance. The Tagliamento is due to its naturlbelassenen streambed as one of the last wild rivers' of the Alps. It must be a spectacle, when the wide river bed fills with water after heavy rainfall.

Up San Daniele del Friuli 2009 have ego tries on minor roads, from there, but recognized that it is more convenient is a slightly longer distance to drive, but to have a good road and do not look every few km at an intersection after the road to have. 2010 I am from the main road through Tolmezzo Carnia drove to San Daniele, which was much trouble as the fumble 2009th

Further south we went first to Porto Gruaro on the SS463 , later on roads accessible by the navigation through to Eraclea Jesolo . The final sprint on the road to Cavallino was then a slalom through the tourist-jammed. As 2009 already I had the feeling to be in Jesolo at the destination already - the Cavallino Peninsula is surprising long.

The tour Brixen-Cavallino was in both 2009 and 2010, the racing season climax.

Is Dimethecome Bad For Your Skin

burner Verona

On the way from the burner by Isarco and Adige Valley to the south you can comfortably make long distances - it is flat or gently sloping to the south. Some weather conditions can I use the wind to his advantage - if you get a tailwind Nordstömungen support. In North jam one must sometimes drive a few km towards Bolzano by train unless you want the tour will start in the rain.

On burner I am on 4 July started at about 06:30 - to about 1370m above sea level. There is the railway station (the Italian side of the pass) has a large parking lot (note: no parking on 5th and 20th of each month). At first it was cool. Much of the departure altitude you put up Brixen (500m) back, and the remaining approximately 400 distributed to about 200 km - from Bolzano the gap is hardly noticeable. Until I was on the Bolzano SS12 . The mileage data are down from about 523rd In Verona I left the road at about the milestone 290th The SS12 ends the way in Pisa - a former stage stop spring tour.

By Eisacktal there was on the SS12 on this Sunday morning only little traffic. The road is in good condition. The Italian name 'Isarco' reminiscent of the 'Isar' - indeed, the word comes from an old Germanic term for 'water', which finds in the word 'ice'. It bypasses the Sarntal in an arc to the east.

larger towns on the way to Bolzano, capital of the province of Tyrol Are Sterzing , Fortezza , Brixen and Klausen . In Bolzano, I've tried as best it east of the city to come and as soon as possible to be back on the SS12 (by the Bolzano SS12 for cyclists partially blocked). To change

By Bozen country are many ways to the SS12 to the great Adige Valley bike path, for example Branzoll or Auer . The bike path also proposes a traffic-free SS12. After Neumarkt to get at Salurn to the German-Italian language border. For me it is amazing how sharp the border between two languages - within a few km you in a different language and culture.

In Nave San Rocco or Lavis a good point about the cycle path is to leave. So as to avoid a loop on the western side of the valley. By Trent , capital of the province of Trento and Trentino hats this time also worked well. In the city I've filled up water and hit three cyclists who were on their way to Lake Garda Zwickau. South of Trent, I'll be more into the meditation mode come.

It is a great experience if the landscape of hours in such flows past one. After Rovereto the locations are less, especially after Ala . The next town - Dolce - is already in the province of Verona , Veneto region. At the Verona Klause reach the southern border of the Alps - a sharp transition between the Alps and the Po Valley . As in Bassano del Grappa, leave the mountains around after a few minutes in a completely flat area recover.

Verona I've looked at me many times - so I could turn out to sightseeing this time and I saw an earlier train back as planned made to the burner. On the train back a few alpine conquerors were on our way back to Germany.

The railway line Bologna-burner is ideal for trips made by bike in almost every train wheels to be transported. There are, however, in some cases several cyclists on the train and the place is a bit tight.

test results

The trip was planned as a test of various changes in equipment, nutrition and tactics. I had not really wanted to experiment Verona as a destination but only a few hours drive south and a little bit. Some worked, some not quite. Pleasing was the time - About 240 km in 7:30 hours and 200km under 6 hours, I've done yet.

successful, the change in the seating position was - by a 180 degree rotation of the seat post slides the seat position a few inches further forward. It was much easier than before to use the aero bars. I think my riding position was so far without aero bars too far back.

through a triathlon-bottle holder for mounting on the saddle and bottle holder-tool boxes (very handy), I gained additional storage space for equipment and food. What has not worked out quite satisfactorily was the food (although it was much better than before). I wanted to try it the number of calories that I consume during the trip to take - which seems to be surprisingly difficult. I can imagine that the topic is food on long distance / ultra race more and more the dominant problem.

too long daily stages are just a calorie deficit event. You have to drive away with full glycogen stores and contribute the rest of the fat stores. According to the kreuzotter.de wheel energy calculator I have the wheel part consumes about 4000kcal. Plus the basal metabolic rate of about 2000kcal That would be a daily requirement of about 6,000 Excluding the pasta party the night before I got on Sunday about the bike before 1000kcal eat / drink while driving around 3000 and then about 2000. the usual burglary at about 150-180 km has failed this time - was Erfeulich. Despite continuous interest came after the ride, the usual cravings for burgers and fries. On 'the top 10 nutrition mistakes in endurance sports' gives a interesting article .

has worked at least dealing with the heat. According to Ala, it was impressive hot. Forecast was 35 degrees, were felt more 40th In the Po valley was either slight headwind or standing shimmering air. Through the asphalt and marble factories on one side of the road was pretty evenly from all sides at all. The only way in which I half-way in extreme heat at the wheel remains is to regularly drink (water with minerals or Isotabs) to drive and with a long garment. Have proved the arm warmers. I had problems only at the uncovered areas of skin, especially in the face.

The sweat evaporates on the arm warmers as well. Failing is a thin long-sleeved undershirt. It is indeed pleasant to drive, but there are no pockets. I will take longer day trips especially in the heat without need from backpack and pockets and, therefore, especially to have something edible is always within reach. The evaporated amount of liquid was not small. I've been drinking 7-8 liters (previously approx 1l, 4l while driving around, then about 2.5 L). It was while driving straight enough, or rather too little, especially in the second half. I had just hours later rather thirsty. At the beginning I've held me fix it once every 5 minutes to drink a sip. It is but the longer you go is more difficult to bring the stuff down.

Conclusion

It was a brilliant ride through Isarco and Adige Valley on a bright and beautiful summer day. Arrivederci Italia - until the next micro-vacation.
