I warmed up on Via Pedemontane and entered Vittorio Veneto from Anzano. I turned left onto the Valdobbiadene road and then turned right at Longhere onto the road marked Fais. This is an excellent climb up through Borgo Olivi and Menegon and onward through the wooded mountainside toward Pian dei Grassi. At 1000 meters I took a left onto a dirt road marked Valle Storta, which soon turns to concrete and descends steeply. This connector road is great except for a short section of dirt/exposed rock which was tricky on the skinny-tired road bike. If you climb it instead of descending, definitely use a MTB.
At 900 meters elevation you join the Pian delle Femene road which climbs upward a few km to 1127 meters. I had some extra time so checked out the paved road toward Le Pose. I'll try to MTB down that further another time. Fast descent to Revine Lago and then the long ride home. Now my legs are too tired to ride to school tomorrow.
