Day six.  Each day I have become stronger from the climbing.  It’s true for the whole group also.  So, we finished early today, even though there were four mountain passes.  This ride is also a famous tour.  We began in Canazei, and we rode for 42 miles, crossing 4 passes, in one big loop.  We arrived at the hotel before 4 in the afternoon.  I was worried about doing 4 passes and 10,000 feet of climbing in one day, but I felt good the whole day. 

While this trip had more climbing, and more difficult climbing than I thought it would, now I’m happy that it was the way it was.  I learned a lot about climbing and descending.  I can do both better now than before the trip.

Tomorrow we will go to Milan to see the finish of the Giro d’ Italia.  It should be really crazy with many people, but we still want to go.  It will be a perfect ending to a perfect trip.
