Great, well written blog. Bookmarked to read the rest later.

Saw this and seems a great event. I did the transcontinental last year which went over the strada dell'assietta which was amazing. Might put this on the to do list if it's a regular event. Don't have the time to do the multi week ones anymore.

Who cares. It's riding a bike for several days with some stuff to allow you to be independent to the level which you choose. Whatever you call it, it is dammed good fun and beats sitting here with a broken femur discussing the meaning of words.
