    A few more Cols before winter

    We are experiencing unusually warm weather at the moment, what better time to spend the day riding over a few Cols...?
    This sunday we went for a bit of offroad; we started by riding the Colle delle Finestre onto the Colle dell'Assietta and finally to the Argentera Valley in the Piemonte region.
    As usual I went with my friend on the KTM; needless to say, we had a great time.
    The more I ride the AT, the more I am surprised at its ability to cope with offroad.
    At one point I was riding between 80 and 100 kph with the beast floating effortlessly over the trail... superb!
    This thing needs uprated suspension, it's almost a shame to keep it like this!

    Great pictures... I hate you!!

    It's probably too late for the 2007 calendar, but maybe we should start a collection of photos for the 2008 calendar? The last one would make a particularly good "Mister October".

    Yup, I thought it might be too late for the calendar (I put some new pics in the appropriate section today)...
    I did not include the last picture because it's slightly out of focus but the coluors are nice.
    Believe me, the photos don't do justice to the beauty of the various shades of orange, yellow, green etc that we saw yesterday!
