    Let’s hit the Rockies!

    by Ewcyna 29 May 2012

    Góry Skaliste rowerem

    Słowo sie rzekło i przemierzamy “the Rockies” czyli Góry Skaliste. – to znaczy tą część, która jest w stanie Kolorado, bo pasmo to przebiega praktycznie przez całą Amerykę Północną. Satisfied cows and equally happy multi-colored horses munch on the grass and we usually saw uphill.. Fortunately, the wind makes it cool, ze nie jest to aż tak uciążliwe, przynajmniej nie zawsze. Pogoda wciąż przepiękna, słońce.

    Podczas rest-day’u czuję się jak na wczasach w tych góralskich lasach – but, ale w promieniach słonecznych nie opalamy się, bo temperatura w nocy jak u nas od braci ze wschodu (a tu jak sie mówi? the brothers from North Dakota? .. ). Brook flows slowly and hums nearby tent, This time yest-day such we are in a very real sense. Sleeping and lazing in the tent, pranko, grub and again lazing. No coercion watching something interesting in the neighborhood, no rush, wonderfully. I finally have time to read guide.

    No truly alpine landscapes, but the aura or would be. One might say “gives you hell”- but in this case is inversely. At night, during the rest of the trickle-daya-9st was, Ryszard evacuated to a caravan Laundry, and Natalia with Wojtek in the morning took the toilet. That's not the purpose of the designated, but at least they survived thanks. The next night, part of the team rented houses preventive, even though it was already much warmer- only -6 st. C. Water in a bottle again I froze and one flip-flop, that came out of my tent also. The caravan pub, where we sat all evening arrived icicle. This cyclist Peter, that's the day he won the Monarch Pass, Our goal for the next day and the highest pass at road trips - 3500 m above sea level.

    But – really beat the pass was not a nightmare, only 15 miles up the hill from the, with a fairly steep. All the time, however, it was sunny and the views are spectacular.

    Rest-day were moving twice, because:
    – the National Park Black Canyon of the Gunnison River campground appeared to be sleeping "in the bush", but this time without even a cold shower or water supplies or something – simply “enjoy the nature” (practice often sleeping "in the bush", but at least you'll have to fork out for a cash). But the same canyon – apparently the deepest in North America – really impressive.

    – lake near Gunnison, where it was supposed to be "so beautiful" camp was even more charming, I was not even a bush, only something in the shape of mountain pine. The shower (with lukewarm water) for which ordered to pay 3 USD had – what else – zaiwaniać kilometers. But it was not even so important. The whole day, and even more night, were a curse. She jumped up storm, on the route instead of going it was pushing a bike because I could not even turn the pedals. And I was walking to the next pass dreamed, to an angel appeared and picked me and no .. My requests were answered:) But the storm almost killed the night my tent and me along with him. In earnest. Bands quite broken, tent not guessed by naciągom, which I used for the first time in its history and fastened wielgaśnymi stones.

    On the last day of my ride will leave the Rocky Mountains and the Colorado Plateau generally, where it stayed for several weeks. I am happy, that is given to me was the return of, What was the reward for climbing multi-. Congress was really a lot - some 50 km, including 30 km superfast.

    Before Pueblo, where I finish my journey starting uninteresting prairie areas. Are characterized by the, with a rather flat, way is as simple as wire, not a single tree or a house on the horizon just some wasteland that is the word – charms of Kansas. And also the following conditions, which lie on the Great Plains, that is, the central U.S.. That already cyclist Peter, who came from the other side and headed west, the password “Kansas” got almost spasms, go with beer (which certainly warmed him) the pub and repeated “Nooooo – Kaaansaaaaas – noooooo!” , which confirmed my belief, it was time to wash the house.

Feel like cycling the Italian seacoast? let me till Feel like cycling the Italian seacoast?
Let me take you to Riviera dei Fiori in Liguria - the Ciclabile dei Fiori is pure magic!.
This beautiful 27-kilometer cycle path overlooking the sea was built on an old railway track - it connects San Lorenzo al Mare and Ospedaletti, just by the French border, breathing new life into the historic railway route between Imperia and Ventimiglia.
There’s something incredibly calming about riding along a quiet, peaceful trail, with the sound of the sea on one side and the mountains on the other. No distractions—just you, the open road, and the warm Mediterranean breeze.
It's one of 2 real longer seacoast cycleways in Italy, know the other one?

I would like the world to always look like it does I would like the world to always look like it does after the rain. It would have clear contours and vivid colors, maybe a cloud or two in the blue sky for decoration. A light breeze would cool my face, and my body would not have to pour out excess sweat. But this paradise, when it comes, usually ends around noon, when the clouds, collected from the humidity, slowly gather over the horizon and you are again gasping for air like a fish, sweat is pouring into your underwear. Then it's time to stop for a siesta.

I've spent 1,5 months in northern Italy this year, making loops and coming back.. saw just road bikers and ebike cyclists so my luggage, which as you know is my home, was a reason for some to stop me and chat.

What 's the most beautiful cycling route in Italy? The Lunga via delle Dolomiti – Great Dolomite Trail, without a doubt! 
It is one of the most rewarding two-wheeled crossings of the entire Alpine arc: you pedal surrounded by some of the peaks recognized by UNESCO as World Heritage Sites. The itinerary follows the route of the railway built during the First World War and decommissioned in the 60ies. 
Come after the rain for the best views!

The #Valsugana cycle path between #Trentino and Ve The #Valsugana cycle path between #Trentino and Veneto provinces was one of my favorites when cycling Italy this year. I came back there twice. It connects Lake Caldonazzo with Bassano del Grappa - it's mostly separated from traffic, 80 km long ciclovia along Brenta river, which originates right here from the lakes of Levico and Caldonazzo and then flows into the Venice lagoon after 175 km. It has always been an important communication route from the mountains to the sea, the Adriatic, the Via Claudia Augusta Altinate, a place of passage and meeting between the Germanic and Latin peoples. It forms one branch of #viaclaudiaaugusta cycle path. You can get there easily by local train but beware - the path is blocked close to Cismon by fallen rocks and the best way to pass is yes, taking a train. 
Due to great quality you can just speed up but the best is to stop and enjoy the small towns you pass by - like #Bassano del Grappa or #Valstagna. The views in the valley are breathing.

This year I've spent 5 months exploring Italy by b This year I've spent 5 months exploring Italy by bicycle. Not bad, huh? Cycled partly or fully more than 30 routes in most provinces. It's hard to say which one I've enjoyed most.. definitely though the rule that it's the hills or mountains that do the job in the landscape (while you do the job pushing) applies everywhere. It was my first time in the Dolomites and the beauty around was breathtaking. 
While putting together the information from this journey I will be posting now here on Instagram some pictures.. tbc

When I thought nothing can beat Sicily (joke) I'm in When I thought nothing can beat Sicily (joke) I directed my two wheels to the Calabria mountains. I've had it in mind for a long time but attempted with a lot of worry if I manage to cycle (and push through) at least a bit of 545 km Calabria Parks Cycle Route - Calabria Parks Cycle Route that crosses 4 national parks on top of the hills. The reason is - I love nature and silence and even though the coast is spectacular, you share road with many cars. Not my thing at all. 
But The Parks Cycle Path is difficult. Requires lots of effort. More than 12000 metres of climbing but yes, descending too. Oh man!! 
But you know what.. I don't need to be quick. Most days I've cycled like 40 km a day. I've done some detours and completed some 70-80 % of the length - jeez, I don't remember when I pushed that hard. Rewarded with serene forests, plains, meadows, silence though. Great people that are both surprised and happy to see a foreigner in their villages. 
Met very few cyclists but maybe not a season yet. All of them bikepack, I have been the only one (very) fully loaded. Maybe the first Polish cyclist here? 
Today I will (most probably) cycle down to the coast but already planning detouring Inland of Italian boot when following north. That's when authenticity is.

..Want to spend a pleasant relaxing day, enjoying ..Want to spend a pleasant relaxing day, enjoying the peace and beauty that the landscapes of Western Sicily offer? the Marsala cycle path is what you are looking for!..
That's how the typical commercial would start but in this case I would second that. It wasn't even marked on my app (shame mapy.cz) so came with a surprise when I was cycling along the coast from Marsala to Trapani in western Sicily. The Stagnone cycle path is about 8 km long, but as it crosses the evocative landscape of the saline with its windmills, to multicolored tanks and the pretty islands of the Stagnone lagoon is to me one of the most beautiful cycling itineraries in Italy. And in April it was absolutely quiet. If it was a bit later in a year I would add a nice bath in the shallow water of lagoon having tens of flying kite's in view. Go there, especially at sunset!

Guess where was I the previous weekend?!! Yes! Guess where was I the previous weekend?!!  Yes!  - in Bologna, at the CYCLING TOURISM fair, i.e. Fiera del Cicloturismo!

I came there (flew) looking for Italian cycling inspirations, but also the desire to meet people who have a similar passion, take advantage of workshops and lectures.  I was very tempted to come here - for myself, but also for you. I don't know if I told you that I want to spend the next few weeks traveling around Italy to create a knowledge base about bicycle routes in this beautiful country?  So I say 🙃.

By a thousand coincidences I managed to get there and then I got lost seeing the endless options.. I've seen a lot in Italy, I've ridden many routes and beyond, but I didn't expect to see - on paper and virtually - such an offer for two-wheel travel enthusiasts.  Each region has several, a dozen, several dozen bicycle routes, of which I want to select the most important ones.  I also acquired some practical information  that will be useful to Poles.

Companies producing bicycles and organizing trips, as well as representatives of several foreign destinations, unfortunately without Poland, were also present at the fair.  What's more, probably the most important thing - lots of workshops on every topic you need, lectures, prizes - including separate prizes for women. 

See at least a little of it in the photos.  I would love to have a similar event in Poland!
Cycle tourism fair - thank you for a great event.  It was worth it!
My bicycle and luggage was waiting for me near Marsala in Sicily, from where I went to traverse the island, but more about what happened earlier and later in the next episodes - usually on Ewcyna Facebook though.
