prosecco cycling track

This is my actual track from the 2012 course - showing hills and speeds for the long course.



What it doesn't show is the location of the "the food stop from heaven" - this was a mirage I encountered in the last 5km of the race, when I was all out of food and energy, and coasted into a food stop manned by the local military (ex-Alpine Brigade) where I was plied with prosecco and sausages... how I managed to leave this heavenly spot and finish I'm still not able to explain.

Did it really happen?  It's just so unreal to get exactly what you most need, at the time when you most need it.
