Colle del Nivolet


 

 

340  km.

         As usual alarm clock to the dawn and  meeting with him friends at 08.00   o'clock. 

            We depart from Pinerolo convinced to enjoy us a good day of sun (over the 2000mt.) and in saddle at 2 wheels we pick it up tangential north of Turin (a true boredom  for of the motorbikes from enduro!) thin to arrive to the exit for Caselle -  from there we go out and  we take the government one  for the valleys of thin Lanzo  to reach Rivarolo.  

            It covers coffee and cigarette and then above for her  government (already an a little better!) crossing Courgnč and Pont Canavese.  

            The road starts to become  more sinuous and the fun grows; we salt toward Ceresole Reale, beautiful  road and beautiful her lake (sinned for the too tourism!) and, between an excursionist and the other, we push there verse the hill of the Nivolet!  

        This last street line is marvelous for the curves and the landscape, very beautiful they are the two lakes artificial formed by the dike of the aqueduct in Turin, a green and a blue by not to lose!  

        We finally come on the hill, where it opens an amphitheater of snowy mountains and expanses of lawns from  dream.  

        OK, we have reached destination and we now taste there the lunch in shore to the nth little pond, doing  to rest some the rubbers........

    The return is always boring then to avoid the traffic and the long ones rectilinear we divert for Oven and we cross a tortuous road but with a beautiful asphalt, that makes us coast along the mountains and the thousand countries of the canavese, up to go down to Lanzo where we take for Vių and her splendid valley; an ice cream in the plaza of the country where everything the people biker assembles him and then street we go up again the hill of the Lys and we go down to Rubiana in val of Susa.  

    Crossed Avigliana and coasted along his lakes we reach Giaveno, we cross her collection and eccoci to Pinerolo and of here in house
