Just got done talking to JK...he's home and also doing some detailing....

So everyone is accounted for. Fantastic weekend, definitely looking forward to 2.0.

Mr Kleen, awesome shots...I'd like to get some high Rez versions for our video...is that possible?

Sure thing! That's high praise coming from a professional. I think Flickr will let you download high res versions. If not send me an email address and I'll shoot you a dropbox link with the pix you want.

Possibly a silly question: would Stelvio be drivable the first week of September? My dad will be visiting and after seeing all the videos and pictures he wants to go.

Yea... last year I went in late September and the weather was beautiful! I would say it shouldn't be any problem. I think I will go back this year as well. Stelvio v2.0 reloaded? I want to look up those other Festungs (Fortresses) near Nauders and in Switzerland.


You know to stay at Francesca's Post Hotel - right!?

And... NO water in your expresso like Rick did!

I thought a return trip would be a great time to check out the hotel in preparation for Stelv1o 2.0

I'm thinking of late September, next month. I will know soon in a week or two. But late September seems to work for a lot of folks.

Not really sure where we shall drive. Seems like Stelvio is a good place to start off from. We have our friendly hotel there to use as a base camp.


Maybe drive a few passes in Italy from there. ?

Anyone have some suggestions? Gavia Pass ? Maybe Poschiavo(CH) and Bernina Pass(CH) ???

Gavia is 30kph limit, police patrols and full of pot holes. But if you like your passes single track, no visibility, then perfect

When I think back of driving up Gavia... I still have cold sweaty hands, of that nerve racking drive. I really don't want to drive Gavia again.
