Days 5&6 TransRezia

A gentle spin down the valley to our uplift for the day- a heli!

Riders dropped above the clouds

A bit of hiking and a bit of biking to get us even higher to our first stage of the day.

Top of stage one, singletrack twisting out of sight, leading into as fast as you dare chundery access road before dipping into more singletrack, flat out!

A traverse along the valley took us to stage 2, fun woodsy singletrack and some sneaky switchbacks photo Ross Bell. We continued our way down to the valley floor stopping at Chiuro for lunch then hopping on a shuttle to the Aprica pass, up a ski lift for the final stage of the day. One of my favourites of the week. Rooty goodness!

Day 6: Aprica

Up the ski lift again to the first stage of the day, switchbacks, loam and moss putting a smile on our faces!

A repeat of the final stage of yesterday to finish the day and the week. Trying to stay focused after a big week in the saddle. photo Ross Bell

A couple of Fuji podiums rewarding some very deep efforts. Another great training camp- I lost count of the number of sprints we did above 2000m! Exploration of a new area with stunning vistas, top Italian hospitality and riding with new and old friends made for memorable week.
