They turned up 10 minutes later and we headed for the first pass of the day, the Jaun Pass.This was then followed by the Grimsel Pass
and after doing some Marmot watching at the top
we headed down the Furker,onto the Oberal, then onwards to the Lukmanier before ending the day completing the San Bernardino.
The day was spent in glorious sunshine with wonderful scenery. We saw a glacier and several large dams and snow on the mountain tops. Things are a little vague as we just lost ourselves in the joy of riding such great biking roads. If only we could bring them closer to home!
With the evening drawing in we stayed the night at the Hotel Suretta in Splugen.
Having unpacked the Guzzi it was time for a walk around the town. This didn't take too long as it was a very small place. It did however give Guzzisue chance to take a few photographs.
