Going to be a tough decision - only time for 1 Italian Mountain, which would it be ?

[masking_agent]

so my choices are 1 out of the 3, Stelvio pass, Gavia pass and the Mortirolo. I don't have time for all 3. Not even 2. I only have time for one. I've seen and read the great battles of all of them. I will be using a 34 x 25/6/8. I wish I could spend my vacation riding all 3. But I have limited funds and limited times. So I have to pick one ?? Which one should I ride ?

Gavia pass.

Depends on what you want out of it. If you're looking for the toughest challenge, I'd go with the Mortirolo. If you prefer the beautiful scenery, then go for either the Stelvio or Gavia (that's not to say they're easy, of course).

Stelvio or maybe do the Selle Ronde loop

Race Radio - thanks. Stelvio ? Really ?

It looks like its going to be between the Stelvio and Gavia for obvious reasons

For me the Stelvio is the greatest climb in the area. It is also good for driving

Yes, the north route is the classic route and, depending on where you are coming from, easier to reach
