Completing My Dream Ride - Was It Worth The 10 Year Wait?

Cycling Italy’s most beautiful lake, but was it worth the wait? Back in 2013, Alex visited Lake Garda and immediately put an epic ride around its shores on his bucket list. Now, ten years later, he has returned for what will be his longest ride since retiring as a pro. His route is a full loop of the lake and includes a stretch along the hanging Lake Garda cycle path.
