Going for Broke

It all started with a book, well books, extoling the virtues of some of the greatest cycling climbs in Europe. It ended with a smile and an adventure that pushed my personal limits further than I imagined. This tome follows the ups, downs and sometimes sideways moves and decisions that shaped this trip across Austria via some of the countries highest roads by bicycle. From the gripping Otztaler Radmarathon with its four passes in a day to the blasted landscape of the Gross Gloeckner Alpine Road and on into the tourist heartland of the Salzkammergut. Its not a blog, its not a diary but it is a tale with more turns than the Timmelsjoch Pass!
