I took a liberty and jammed a Saturday ride in before my flight home. Crazy cold 🥶 (minus 3) but a beautiful route taking in 6 hills in Surrey (including the ‘Zwift famous’ Biz hill and Leith hill...). Met some… https://t.co/AX3sYAkx6D

2019 Noosa Tri done and dusted 👊Another not-so-pleasant swim... but the ride and run were 👌overall a great event as always, made better by sharing it with these legends #family #team #noosa #noosatri @ Noosa Heads,… https://t.co/11t8RF31Hn

#UQCC club champs 2019. This is me leading the field on the bell lap. After a lap away I thought at this point the crowd’s cheers would help get me home.... I was wrong 🤣Good fun though 💪#cycling #racing… https://t.co/v7c3LKYEvX

That time I tried to go off the front with 36km to go... Spoiler alert - did not end well 😬 Good hit out at the #uqcc Charles Coin Road Race today 👊🚴🏻‍♂️💨 #cycling #racing #fromwhereiride #bianchi #specialissima… https://t.co/sEEBCmHK8U

That’s a wrap on my week in Corsica. 860km, 14,500m of climbing over almost 35 hours in the saddle. Amazing place. From the beaches to the centuries old forgotten villages and all the cols, valleys and gorges in… https://t.co/hT4JZTtFTk

Corsica day 6 - the Queen stage. 177km, 3,500 Mts of climbing over 3 major climbs (and a few bonus ‘surprise’ climbs to end the day... 😢). Whilst the rest of Corsica’s climbs are long and relatively gentle, today… https://t.co/LTYFVdJEac

Day 4 in Corsica, described by @adam_wolley as our ‘rest day’. 128km, 2,300 of climbing over 3 climbs measuring 6km, 18km and 26km 😬Hardly any traffic to contend with in these rural areas - although we were… https://t.co/zOOIf5laGQ

Today’s ride - from Calvi on the North-West coast up and around Corsica’s finger-like peninsula, to the port city of Bastia. A couple of climbs aside, today it was rolling hills with the sea by our left side all day… https://t.co/St4rhYav1x

Corsica Day 2 - today had a bit of everything. A gentle 38km climb, epic coastal roads, unbelievable gorges, cows blocking the road 🐮- ending 165km later in the beautiful seaside village of Calvi #corsica… https://t.co/8hSAv8gh5R

Corsica Day 1 - From coastal city of Ajaccio to Corte in the centre of the Island. 5 climbs and one of the most glorious descents on basically deserted roads. Crazy hot and a long day in the saddle but great fun 👍… https://t.co/tEgXiQ6g5f

When riding from Italy into Switzerland via the Umbrail Pass I feel it is important to be culturally sensitive with your jersey choices🇨🇭🤣 After a quick pop up from Bormio, over the border from 2500 mt and a… https://t.co/AcBWFZwFQG

[Michele Muscillo @acparma04]

Few climbs inspire fear into a cyclist like Passo del Mortirolo. On paper it’s almost 12km at 11% but that does not do it justice. From km 5 to 9 the average is over 13% with lengthy sections at 18%, up to 19%.… https://t.co/ZkvDQht3Kj

[Michele Muscillo @acparma04]

Passo dello Stelvio - from Bormio the road rises for 21.5km and gains almost 1600mt to reach a summit of 2757mt. It is the ‘easier’ side of the pass to climb, relatively speaking of course 😳 #passodellostelvio… https://t.co/OCSN1G7Dkv

[Michele Muscillo @acparma04]

Passo Giau - 9.9km averaging 9.3%. Ramps of up to 15%. A beast. There are no words 🏔🚴🏻‍♂️💨👊 #passogiau #dolomites .

The Sella Ronda - 4 climbs in less than 60kms, with 3 summits above 2000mt. Passi Campolongo, Pordoi, Sella and Gardena. You would be hard pressed to find a more picturesque backdrop anywhere in the world 🏔🚴🏻‍♂️💨… https://t.co/prInWfoXqD

Passo San Valentino | Here’s what I have learned about planning cycling routes. When the guide says 18.2km @ 6%, it’s a good idea to be sceptical... a couple of flat and downhill sections through villages at 9km in,… https://t.co/mq7WUyjwPj

[Michele Muscillo @acparma04]

Passo Bordala. Not the highest summit but it’s 15km of switchbacks to get there. Cruelly, the climb ends with a nice steep section just to finish you off. Thankfully there is Strudel waiting for you at the Rifugio… https://t.co/BtJhe2RDIv

[Michele Muscillo @acparma04]

Back to Italy and back to the mountains. Monte Velo. A beast of a climb with little reprieve until the last Km. Setting off in 34 degree heat did not help much either I guess 🥵🏔🚴🏻‍♂️💨👍 .
