Maurizio Today's birthday, is scheduled climb Amonte Paul 2 ("2" because it is the second road to get there). It 's more than the first, and then leaves at 9.00
Solito river park, asphalt up to Land of the Sun to gain time, which rose to Converselle, the same yesterday, and then down to San Paolo.
So far so good, except the puddles are not wet due to ice and hence the mud is very "crunchy".
proceed to the entrance of the road to San Paolo.
Even before you get to meet a number of snow, which would be a pleasure if it were soft, but it's hard, where you move is a block of ice.
It 'still ride and if you avoid the ice continues without major problems. Paul
mountain pass and a point per second access.
Here it is heavy, the snow is so great, have passed into the path of all-terrain tires and the sign is a block of ice.
Uphill often lacks the grip behind the wheel, we must be very careful while the slope increases.
We are undecided whether to continue with a walk a bit on the saddle.
Then we give up, there are still a 3 km in those conditions would be done on foot across a field very difficult
Those photos above are from where we gave up, so we went back and embarked on the climb up Monte Paolo 1, falling some bikers have confirmed that the road was better than 2, it was better for sure but get to the top was really, really ... hard. 
I slipped at least three times because the wheel just came out of the sign, the ice does not allow errors and does not sell at all. 
The problem is that the slope is easy to swing and miss the line retta.Queste are photos taken upon arrival of the first ascent of Monte Paolo, as you can see the snow is all, there are at least 30 cm, and is heavy, the trees and also that they are bent on the ground is so compact, as shown in photo, is the stand of my bike. E 'followed by the sprint to the house, the descent has frozen and the track was the only option.
I'm overwhelmed, I think Maurice is not less.
What drudgery!
