Piancavallo

Haven't ridden for a week- been helping a neighbor with daily visits to see family in hospital.  So I thought I'd try a quick ride up Piancavallo this morning before driving to the hospital.  I was surprised how out of shape I got in one week- it was harder than I expected.  Luckily I survived.  A little dog like our "chihuahua" Honey welcomed me to the top.  Snow quite deep still- I was expecting it to be melting away.  Fun descent and I regained my strength for the 200 meter dislivello to Giais.
