#179s - Italy, Trieste area - Basovizza to Villa Opicina (09/2016)
The first movie of the last ride of Season 2016! And surely one of the best! Even if it is just 63 km. Now, I don't exactly start in Basovizza but it's close enough and along the main road towards Trieste. But immediately, I get off that road and along the paths along the edges of the hills surrounding Trieste and offering some spectacular views, along with a spectacular ride!
Luckily, I did manage to find ways across (or better, under) the main roads and I managed to follow the desired path straight into Villa Opcicina (best known for its tram connection with Trieste and then trains to Slovenia). However, a word of caution. Two words, actually. 1) Parts of the path are very rocky, even when it doesn't feel like it and I had a nasty hit resulting with a flat tyre, throwing my carefully planned schedule quite a bit off. 2) A good part of this entire section, to Villa Opcina, is a good climb. Luckily, not all the way, just the last part, but I found it rather challenging. Yes, yes, I find every climb rather challenging, good point, but still - be warned. As for the rest of the ride... Well, you'll see some of it now and then the rest in the following movies.
Filmed in September 2016.
