Tom, the riding here is incredible. In the snow/rain we saw over 500 mottos doing similar pass routes. It is a true moto paradise.

No, never dangerous. Snow was very dry and blew across the road piling up on down wind one side of the road. All riding while in the snow was at 10-25 MPH and slower in the hair-pin switch backs.

Bro….hopefully you had your heated riding suit! With all the snow were the roads at all icy? At least you are smiling in all the photos.

Hey Dean, thanks for that very cool update. Sorry about the weather. Coincidentally, last summer I took the kids on a one week backpacking trip around the “Rosengarten,” a group of reddish mountains no more than two or 3 miles west of where you did your loop through the Dolomites. I remember thinking I wish I could dump my backpack and jump on a motorcycle because I saw the beautiful roads there.
