1770 7. Etappe Malé - Madonna di Campiglio, 48 km Höhenmeter 
After a warm farewell to the Employee of the pizza vending machine factory, we made ourselves in the bright sunshine on the road. The situation at the start has changed compared to the first stage complete: Nervous hot shots are not visible for miles, but for a lot of lactate bodies at the edge of the start block. Some drivers look to staring into space, others pick, leaning his head against a wall, for valuable sleep. For us, the usual gallows humor was not as fast from the lips, but we felt like we were put under a steamroller - deeply relaxes tired muscles and the odd no end ... We expected a short stage, which, however, had an anxiety-making height profile. Fortunately, our respect was larger than the slope percentages, so we were up again at some point. Nungut, so the way was not easy, as about 500 vertical meters below the summit began rain that was garnished at the top station of the lift (no, we can not use ...) by hail. Fortunately we had the rain gear and have it on the summit can do something for international understanding, because we could borrow a trembling Swiss a wind jacket. The weather in the target did not fit to start - the pictures speak for themselves. But we have survived and were happy about the hot shower and the heater in the camper. Tomorrow we will forward to the last Stage - a madness, as you get used to the load. We do occur, as we had never done anything other than cycling, and as we would never do anything else - addicted to ride ... the height profile http://bike-festival.de.dedi1569.your-server.de/fileadmin/user_upload/pdf_biketransalp/hoehenprofile/cbt2010_07.pdf to Day Rating: http://bike-festival.de.dedi1569.your-server.de/fileadmin/user_upload/pdf_biketransalp/ergebnisse10/e7_1654.pdf
2321 6. Etappe Ponte di Legno - Malé, 73 km Höhenmeter 
Fortunately, the morning after ... Henning after laboriously regained consciousness, and both drivers were fit again. Shortly after takeoff, it went through a beautiful high mountain on the highest point of the day. Then a seemingly endless trail of entlangzog as a mule with an easy up and down to about 2000 meters. We had a great view of the valley, which lay in the Märklin Scale among us. Indescribable, for mountain bikes were invented! The runs were correspondingly rough and had it in themselves. Finally, it is supposed to be the hardest mountain bike race in the world and remain, the track selection is similar. Material and dental fillings were s, the end of the stage went through the valley of Meledrio. Here again, the hour Hennings, the steam engine, the wind shadow of Karsten donated for the power play. We were rewarded with space 91, the top 100 overall are within reach! Today, the ground crew was not able signposted as many signs as the bikers, the RV sites were not so in the narrow streets again met campers who saw themselves with a questioning expression. It is a mystery, in which the value is paid for by us € 100 if we are to ordinary mobile home parks or campgrounds pay again. Both, however, was not possible today, and after a long search found Christine and Achim a place on the site of a pizza factory machines - we are finally in Italy! The staff showed great sportsmanship: Power supply was down of course a power cord and could shower and warm in the factory. now in the evening everything is good, but slowly the fear creeps before tomorrow's start of a stage - it's just a steep dam with lift ... the height profile http://bike-festival.de.dedi1569.your-server.de/fileadmin/user_upload/pdf_biketransalp/hoehenprofile/cbt2010_06.pdf to Day Rating: http://bike-festival.de.dedi1569.your-server.de/fileadmin/user_upload/pdf_biketransalp/ergebnisse10/e6_1850.pdf

This entry comes a day later. We had no internet. And we were completely ko And we had to eat and bikes clean and wash and wash schlaaaaaafen. The highlight was us and the ground crew shooter. And to Christine's birthday! While our team accompanying the motorhome over narrow mountain roads to the milestone controlled, began the day by us with an ascent of the Passo Trela wonderful trails and on through stunning mountain scenery. After 50 km we took our first from the high mountain peaks, in order to drive in a 20 km long low-level flight after Grosotto - a huge reward for the slog in the first half stage! But the thing was a catch: The course planners had made us a monster mountain with 1600 meters of altitude to play in his way. It was necessary to overcome the Mortirolo, which is feared to the Giro d'Italia. We learn we had to take the cyclists the easy option! We drove a short cut to the top so that we do not overcome 10%, but 15% slope had. Onset of rain and cold any movement difficult. Once at the top at the pass, we went not down, but coming right out of the woods yet. The last departure began difficult. On steep, slippery floor, we had some running, some driving to find a way. Eventually we found in the flow of the trail and could enjoy the road. At last came the final ascent to Henning finally the man with the hammer. 300 meters to the finish and stomach and legs no longer wanted. An endless time, meter by meter, he had to fight to the finish. Despite the drudgery of the 91st Place in the daily standings. How much to wait until these other teams have suffered! the height profile http://bike-festival.de.dedi1569.your-server.de/fileadmin/user_upload/pdf_biketransalp/hoehenprofile/cbt2010_05.pdf to Day Rating: http://bike-festival.de.dedi1569.your-server.de/fileadmin/user_upload/pdf_biketransalp/ergebnisse10/e5_2157.pdf
