Re: Greatest elevation gain under human power [Slowman]
Not like this would beat some of the others, but the ride from Bormio to the top of Passo di Stelvio ends in a ski resort at the pass. This ski resort is only open in the summer because it is snowed in during the winter. You would then have the option of running to the summit of XC skiing or snowshoeing up. The problem is Bormio is already "too far up" at around 1200m


Trento Italy 180k away is down at 190 feet
Passo di Stelvio is at 9045 feet.
Ski Stelvio Summit at 3451m = 11388 ft

Total would be over 11,000 feet of climbing in one shot with 180k ride. Totally doable in a day.





OK OK....are we having fun on this thread or what? Slowman, when are you having the ST Stelvio + Gavia + Mortirola camp?
