RIVIERA MALEDETTA: 200k LAGO MAGGIORE BIKE TOUR

Cycling Around Lake Maggiore, sole, amore: 200km in a single day for a real Riviera Quadrizeps- und Deltamuskelvernichtung am Strandt Bike Ride in Northern Italy A lap around Lago Maggiore in northern Italia, with a little grande boucle problem to solve. The lake itself doesn’t quite give you the full 200km, so naturally the solution was to add Lago di Mergozzo, then point the machine uphill above Ghiffa for some entirely unnecessary verticalité. A day of lake roads, cappuccino, mountains, questionable gradients and the ancient cycling tradition of adding uphill kilometres when you're basically home and it's getting dark because the number on the GPS looked better that way.
