The Alps
If you add up all the
miles that can be cycled
on pavement or good,
unpaved roads - over
summits and passes in
the Alps, I doubt that
any area in the world
would approach the total
distance of all these
rides added together.
Some of these pass
roads have very heavy
traffic during the
summer, while others are
so narrow and twisted
that few drivers take
the time to explore
them. Some have smooth
surface with heavy
motorcycle traffic,
while others are left to
fend for themselves as
far as potholes are
concerned. If you like
to climb on a bicycle,
every area in the Alps
has to offer a lot of
variety.
