I would like to introduce the "Southern Appalachian Road Climbs" web site, at this temporary address. http://webpages.charter.net/fobusek/sarc_intro.htm This...
I'll be taking a holiday in August in Artimino which is a village between Prato and Empoli, near Firenze. Does anyone know of any clubs in the area which have...
Hi Frank I spent just a few minutes looking at your site, but that was enough to be impressed by the presentation and content. It is really the users, not...
... Excellent start, should be useful for my occasional business trips to Greenville, SC. Brian Brian DeSousa Orange, California, USA http://briandesousa.com/...
Thanks Brian. I really appreciate the feedback. Yes, I'm feeling good about the start. I would like to do a huge cosmetic overhaul and find a better way to...
Francois. Thanks!!! Thanks for the encouragement. I had hesitated several times to let groups know....and this KOM site has offered the most feedback. I...
FranK, I'll add my compliments on the website. Now, as for other cyclists, have you ridden with my friend Fred, who moved down to Asheville last year? He's a...
Hey Nate! You need to come down here and do the Cashiers ride! Fred keeps talking about you, but I'm waiting to meet you. Fred totally drops me on the...
Frank, Fred learned quite a bit during the years he was here in NJ. Once he was able to surpass his teacher on the climbs it was time for the grasshopper to ...
Nate, Fred took 1st in his age group and 3rd overall. I will find out my position tomorrow if they list it. I think that I improved a whole minute from last...
... Seems strange doesn't it? The rest of us in the flat lands would give our eye teeth to be able to ride these rides out our front door and those who can...
Does anyone know the gradient and conditions of this climb the Tour of Georgia did on Saturday. In cyclingnews Armstrong said they used 27 sprockets instead...
I think it is Brasstown Bald that you are referring to. This is a great, short climb up to the highest point in Georgia. The first 2.5 miles average 9.5%...

I have this climb featured on my Southern Appalachians Road Climbs web site. Look in the North Georgia section. There is a neat 3D fly through. ...
Thanks Frank it's a great site. I like the views displayed of the Brasstown Bald. It would be good to coordinate these with points on the 3D fly. One climb...
I can also add that it was probably in the 40's but the wind was swirling all day in gusts up to 20 mph and sometimes containing mist, sleet and rain. I was on...
Hi Nigel Just asked our secretary, she had lots of good things to say about Artimino (between Florence and Sienna, on hilltop). Historic village, very well...
John, I ran into Elvis a few times.....I was at Woody Gap too in that crazy hail storm. Did you see the Discovery Channel Spider Man? Between Ellijay and...
Hi all, I hope that many of you will be able to watch the Giro d'Italia on tv, because it's going to be a humdinger! For the first time (to my knowledge), La...
Hi April, Presumably you're back in Italy now? OLN has cut back on their Giro coverage this year. Just Saturday and Sunday shows. Oh well. Probably all the...
That is a drag that OLN cut back the coverage. We had it in an IPTV stream (I work at Cisco) every day last year and the stages were usually played first thing...
Hello April, yes it's the first time (apart from last Lombardia) that RCS gave out the stage timetables without a lot of begging and a fax number. I will be...
Because the Col de Fer descent is blocked the new route is over the Glandon and descend to the Vallee of Villard giving 500 metres more distance and about 160...
... I am, in principle. Oetztaler was to be my main goal for 2005, but I have something else that day, so I shifted to Marmotte, hope I will be ready on...
Judging from the strong North wind here, the Mistral (wind) could be a major factor up the well named Ventoux (Vent =wind) today. Before reaching the summit,...
