This is my first ride into the real high mountains for years!

The Fausto Coppi Gran Fondo is part of my build up for the Haute Route and at 177km in length and with over 4000 meters of ascent, it's not a route for the faint hearted.

It's fair to say this one really pushed me and forced me to dig deep inside. The main climb of the day, the Colle Fauniera is an absolute beast that holds it own alongside any of the iconic and more famous climbs in Europe!

Thanks for watching.
