Just back from an epic run down to Italy, taking in the stelvio pass.. totally awesome!

Think I covered about 3000mi in total over that week.. I'm just about biked-out!

Oh yea. We left Lake Garda nearly 40 degrees heat. Headed up Stelvio later that day with lightning bouncing off the road in front of us. Got to the summit, 2 degrees and snowing in our summer gear. Back down the other side with rainbows below us, we really were 'somewhere over the Rainbow'. That was July a few years back. What an amazing experience. Our destination from Stelvio was Fusan for a few days. Epic

Yep and most of the other passes amazing roads and scenery

Unlike above was 30+ degrees but still 20 at the summit which is then odd looking at all the snow around you

Amazing trip to be done again and again

Yes - but not on a bike.

Some years ago, in an MGBV8,with a good friend.

We shared the driving and petrol bills - but nothing else
